Manley Labs CORE Reference Channel Strip 2014 - 2019 - Purple

Manley designed the Core reference channel strip so that you can hit record and focus on your performance instead of your signal chain. The Core is infused with the quality, performance, and flexibility Manley’s VOXBOX is known for, at a price that makes it accessible to any serious artist or engineer. You get a world-class Manley mic pre, followed by a 3:1 ELOP style compressor for effortless dynamic control. Engineers at Sweetwater love the active Baxandall EQ, and the fast-attack brickwall FET limiter that protects your converters from clipping. Even if you plug right in without tweaking a single knob, the Manley Core ensures that you will get an amazing sound.
