Newly handbuilt 4ch neve carnhill uk transformer rack. Adds vintage uk style fuller thicker low end punch & smooth silky highs, evens out stray dynamics, gets rid of harsh sterile digital sound. All passive analog, no power needed. Uses include on mix bus, drum bus, stems, tracks, inserts, after preamps and any other line level studio gear such as compressors, effects, synths, samplers, drum machines, etc. Used by several top grammy winning producers and studios from NY to LA and beyond in all genres from rock, pop, hiphop, metal, jazz, electronic, indie, blues, folk, etc. Each channel is independent to use as stereo pairs or in mono or mix of both. Each also has a high freq switch for either full range modern highs when up, or darker smoother vintage highs when down. Very heavy duty and heavy unit...weighs about 10lbs
Great on individual tracks while tracking, or after in post...vocals, bass, drums, guitar, etc. Thickens and smooths transients over the whole tonal range from low to high adding real analog weight, depth & color. Makes mixing easier with less need for compression and eq, as it glues and eq's things in the natural analog way to sit in the mix naturally sounding bigger in the process. Also available as a 2 channel desktop box or as a 2 channel rack (see our other listings)
The 4 channels are completely independent, can be used any way you want...as 2 stereo pairs, or as 4 mono channels, or one stereo pair and 2 monos. For example on drums you could use a stereo pair on overheads and 2 monos on kick and snare and have a massive big solid sound instantly naturally and easier than attemptingo for same with a bunch of eq and compression. Track kick thru one side, snare thru the other, bass thru one, guitar thru other, etc. Instant fat tight punchy smooth rich tone the easy natural way as the past masters did thru neve consoles. So many ways to use, try them everywhere.
