The AMS Neve 33609/N Discrete Stereo Limiter / Compressor is a revered tool in the world of professional audio, combining vintage analog charm with modern precision. Famous for its smooth, musical response and unparalleled dynamic control, the 33609/N is an industry-standard for mixing, mastering, and broadcast applications. This dual-channel unit, with its distinctive Class-A discrete design, offers an unmistakable Neve sound that adds warmth, punch, and presence to any audio source, making it a favorite among engineers and producers for decades.
-
Classic Neve Sound:
- Incorporates Neve’s signature Class-A discrete design, providing the rich harmonic character, warmth, and clarity that have defined countless hit records. Ideal for use on individual tracks, buses, and entire mixes.
-
Independent Compressor and Limiter Sections:
- Offers independent controls for compression and limiting, allowing for versatile dynamic shaping. The compressor section provides gentle, musical compression, while the limiter section adds punch and protection against peaks.
-
Variable Threshold, Attack, and Release Controls:
- Allows precise control over the dynamic response, with adjustable attack and release settings to tailor the behavior of both the compressor and limiter sections to your specific needs.
-
Switchable Sidechain Filtering:
- Features a sidechain high-pass filter, which prevents bass-heavy signals from triggering unwanted compression, ensuring transparent dynamics control on full mixes or low-frequency instruments.
-
Stereo or Dual-Mono Operation:
- Capable of operating in stereo link mode for cohesive stereo bus processing, or in dual-mono mode for separate processing of two different signals, providing flexibility in various mixing scenarios.
-
Transformer-Balanced Inputs and Outputs:
- Equipped with transformer-balanced inputs and outputs, delivering the classic Neve coloration and warmth while maintaining a high level of signal integrity.
-
Precision VU Meters:
- Dual VU meters provide accurate visual feedback for both gain reduction and output levels, allowing for meticulous monitoring and control over your dynamic processing.
