From the seller
Selling my WesAudio _Rhea, a beautiful stereo vari-mu tube compressor that combines smooth analog compression, tube warmth, harmonic saturation, and modern DAW recall in a compact 500-series format.
This is a gorgeous piece for vocals, mix bus work, mastering-style stereo processing, and adding rich analog movement to a chain. It can stay subtle and classy, or be pushed for more color using the built-in THD saturation modes.
Condition
Excellent / pristine condition.
The unit has been carefully used in a private studio setup and has been treated with real care. It works perfectly and looks beautiful. No functional issues.
Why It’s Special
The _Rhea gives you that smooth, musical vari-mu compression feel — gentle, rich, and flattering — but with modern workflow advantages that make it much easier to use in a hybrid studio.
Highlights include:
Stereo vari-mu tube compression
Fully analog audio path
Tube saturation / THD color modes
Mix control for parallel compression
Sidechain high-pass filter options
Carnhill interstage transformers
DAW recall and plugin control
Analog automation from your DAW
500-series / ng500 compatibility
It’s especially lovely on vocals when you want smooth level control with a touch of tube polish, and it also shines on stereo sources where you want glue, depth, and a more finished analog feel.
Included
WesAudio _Rhea module
USB mini cable, if included
Original box/manual/accessories, if included
Important Note
This is a 500-series/ng500 module and requires a compatible 500-series chassis or WesAudio _TITAN chassis to operate.
Why I’m Selling
I’m reshuffling and simplifying my studio setup, so this beautiful piece deserves to go somewhere it will be used more often.
Packed carefully and shipped with respect — this is proper studio jewelry, not a random metal rectangle with knobs.
