Belclere TF10016 Transformers used in Neve 33609 Compressors.
You want the big beautiful Neve sound in your productions - but don’t want to pay the 3 grand plus Neve bus processors are priced at?
These magically wonderful transformers will take you most of the way there for a fraction of the cost … and they are proper, vintage transformers Neve actually used in their builds (not some cheap copy that most people knocking together transformer colour boxes use …. which were never used in Neve equipment).
At low saturation settings (we use logic’s i/o utility for this) you immediately get a sweetening of the soundstage, transparent bus glue, low end clarity, width and classic transformer saturation sheen, bringing mix elements forward and adding excitement to the party, and the harder you push into them - the more of this you get - until things fall into hyper distortion … but even then it’s musical so useful for elements in a mix.
I added a switchable passive diode distortion circuit to enhance audio even further which turns this rack into a superb creative device as well as a mix / bus and mastering sweetener.
Run your vocals / bass / synths and drums etc hard into these babies to hear them sink into the mix in the most satisfyingly musical way … it’s a thing of beauty!
At low saturation settings with the diodes turned on - it’s a lovely thing to master through - like turning the lights on - but with no nasty plugin smeariness - plus the gentle clipping means your compressor has to work less hard - which is always a plus!
Neve and the BBC used the Belclere company for a lot of it’s transformers - because they’re beautiful things and built to a very high spec!
Balanced jacks in and out.
These transformer racks of mine are the cheapest - easiest ways to get classic analog console dynamics and saturation into your mixes and masters … give your music a little kiss!
