Nouveau Chandler Germanium Compressor au studio aujourd’hui.

"In my 30 years of engineering I have never encountered a compressor that can repair and

enhance any sound thrown it's way!! Between that unit and the "tone control" you have some

 of the most valuable and most used tools in my racks [no bullshit]..."

-Fletcher


"This has to be the fattest, squeeziest, most analog, in your face, kick ass compressor I've heard."

-Michael Wagener

The Germanium series continues with the GERMANIUM Compressor. The GERM Comp starts with the same all class A amp found in the GERM Pre and Tone Control and is transformer balanced in and out. The Compression circuit uses a FET gain reduction element but with the tricks and flexibilty of all the GERM units. Some of the most notable additions include a WET/DRY mix (for “submixing” tracks within the comp), COMP CURVE (which selects the knee using various diode combinations), CLEAN/DIRTY COMP, and SIDECHAIN FILTER. Many of the GERM Comp parameters have been purposely set by studio use and listening, not by over analysing them with test gear. The result is a musical powerhouse for ready for tracking, mixing, and mastering.

16 Avril 2008: Yippee !!!! Il fait +15 deg et ensoleillé !!!! Viva El Printemps au Studio 270.

10 Avril : Manley – Manley – Manley Passive Massive Mastering EQ……

There are two ways to explain passive equalization:

 

First, one can describe the circuit as a series of passive filters made up of resistors and inductors, followed by a make-up amplifier on the output which restores the amplitude lost by inserting the filters.

 

OR, we can use the much more fun one-word description: "Pultec"! Yep, those old, three-rack-space mono monsters are passive EQs with a honkin’ tube amp on their back-end.

 

This is a different principle than "active" EQs like the famous Neves, which have a more aggressive sound. The magic of a good passive EQ is that it is subtle but VERY musical, enabling many db of boost without sounding artificial.

 

 For instance, the low-boost on the famous Pultec EQP-1A has been the BIG knob for kick-drum for decades. When you dial in that Pultec 60hz for the first time, you immediately recognize it from major recordings.

 

Manley’s Massive Passive is a brilliant modern rendition of the passive EQ, and one of our absolute favorite devices ever made. (And forget those plug-ins, they don’t cut it! If you want the sound of real passive EQ, analog hardware is a must!)

24 Mars:  NEWS – NEWS – NEWS:

Maintenant disponible au Studio 270…Ze VoxBox de Manley…. Ze best De-esser for voix et direct Box for bass…

It looks awesome, but what is it?

Primarily, it is a voice processor which in itself is not a novel idea, but the time had come to pull out all the stops and make a truly professional high-end statement. One that covered the needs of the project songwriters and big-time major studios alike. One whose all-tube signal path could bring every instrument and overdub to life. One that, plain and simple, sounded unquestionably better than the rest, provided flexibility, simplicity, and well thought-out ergonomics. Full of features, timeless style, robust build quality, and that world-famous "Manley Sound", we present to you the MANLEY VOXBOX®.

That’s nice. What’s it good for?

While we were designing the VOXBOX® we couldn't help but notice how well it works on other instruments besides voice. There are some great settings for drums, bass, guitar, and keys and the two separate sections can be used together or independently. Stereo using two VOXBOXes? You know we couldn’t resist planning for that as well. There are Stereo Links for both the compressor and the De-Ess/Limiter sections, special compression settings and super-sweet EQ frequencies for your mix or pre-mastering. So don't just use it for voice. The name "VOXBOX®" represents only the beginning...

Joyeuses Paques a Tous !!!

14 Mars: NEWS – NEWS – NEWS:

Quad Gama Mic Pre….Ouch…With the infamous Iron option. Also, the regular Nickel and Steel sound. Choose your vintage output transformer for THAT guitar sound

Pourquoi aller à New York pour ce son ? Maintenant disponible au Studio 270.

The Shadow Hills Quad GAMA is a four channel version of the Gama, with all the capabilities, features, and quality of the original.

The preamplifier input is transformer balanced and utilizes an original Jensen input transformer. We couldn't decide which vintage output transformer we liked best, so we had our favorites perfectly recreated, and included them all. You can change output transformers with the flick of a switch, thus changing the tonal capabilities to compliment to whatever material you are recording. This allows you to audition different settings to find the perfect match for microphone or direct input without patching and un-patching other preamps, and possibly alleviating the need for EQ. Choose between Nickel, Discrete, or Steel settings, or upgrade the Discrete to Iron. Each transformer position is stellar unto itself, but the capability of switching between them is like having three great pre's in one.

The microphone gain is controlled by discrete attenuators made from custom twenty-four position Elma switches. This means that all of the channels are perfectly matched to each other and will never wear out like a pot can. Unlike other boutique companies that offer expensive stepped, or mastering options, but limit you to twelve positions, or use stepped pots that can fail over time, ours have twice the resolution and are included in the price.

All the standard Mic-pre features are present: phantom power, phase reverse, a twenty dB pad, and direct input. We have also included the ability to pad and reverse the phase of the Direct Input. The separate power supply is very robust and can power two units.

Quality is also unmatched. Twelve gauge steel chassis, engraved front panels, large custom knobs, and personalized engraved serial number plates, set the build apart. The design esthetic is reminiscent of 1930's futuristic military technology, that has only now been realized. Features:

  • Superb sound quality and character
  • Switchable output transformers
  • Detented switches
  • Phase reversible and padable DI
  • Separate robust power supply (included)
  • Engraved front panels

BRING BACK DA BRITISH SOUND !!!!

 

Le team du Lab lance sa promotion BRITISH INVASION au Studio 270

 

 

 

Da Abbey Road Special Edition TG 1 Limiter

 

The Chandler Limited TG1 is a recreation of the classic EMI TG12413 Limiter used in custom EMI and Abbey Road recording and mastering consoles from the late 60's. The TG Limiter was originally designed to be like the Fairchild 660/670 which was loved by many EMI engineers, including Geoff Emerick, but ended up with a very special sound all its own. These rare pieces were never commercially available and only EMI owned studios had access to them. Our version has been remade from the original design information and circuit board drawings as provided by Abbey Road and EMI to ensure extreme authenticity!

TG equipment was used on many classic records and this Limiter was featured on every channel of TG consoles used to record The Beatles "Abbey Road", several Pink Floyd records including "Dark Side of the Moon", Paul McCartney, and the Rolling Stones.

The Limiter/Compressor features an all discrete circuit with transformer balanced input and output. The limiting element is a rarely seen diode network that produces smooth, pleasing distortion. The warm open sound, often compared to a Fairchild 670 set to stun, is very audible and squishy sounding while maintaining its clarity and high frequency response.

 

"The TG1 doesn't just paint a picture, it paints the whole town. From subtle compression to brutal squeeze, everything is in this box. It's vintage sound works great for any kind of digital recording and I won't ever want to mix without it again."

- Michael Wagener


"The Chandler Limited TG1 seems to be from another age - plucked from a time capsule... Adds a whole new quadrant to your sonic palette with many useful compression sounds and way over the top limiter effects...the most tube-sounding transistor compressor Ive heard..."

- Barry Rudolph Mix Magazine Feb 2003


"When used across the drum room, the EMI inspired Stereo compressor brings out an aggressive quality that I've not yet heard from any other compressor (and I've got 46 to play with). When used as a send it brings out the punch and clarity of instruments without effecting the overall level of the stereo output. I love them, I can't wait for Wade to make the EMI inspired EQ's"

100% FAT

 

Pas bon pour la santé…mais recommandé pour les guitares électriques.

 

FAT SOUND

 

BRING BACK DA SOUND

 

Ce week-end lancement par Le Lab au 270 du Chandler Mic Pre GERMANIUM :

 

 

Chandler's newest series of units starts off with the GERMANIUM pre amp. A completely new design by Chandler Limited designer Wade Goeke that uses classic germanium transistors in all class A, transformer balanced, circuits. The use of germanium devices opens a whole new sound palate not found in any pro audio equipment currently manufactured.

These incredibly smooth sounding transistors were the basis of the earliest transistor designs by Neve (1053, 1055, 1057), EMI ( TG12345 MKI), Telefunken, and Fairchild. Those familiar with these units can attest
to the special sound of the germanium transistor. The GERMANIUM series runs on +40 volt power, high current, and has a huge +34 output before clipping. The sound is warm and smooth as with many vintage style circuits, but you'll find a whole new world of smooth here as well as a sound that settles in perfectly to your tracks without fighting. Add these new circuits to Chandler's new transformer line that combines the best parts of our favorite trannies, St Ives and Gardners, into new great sounding input and output transformers.

Bon, on me reproche d’etre trop Hype, trop Chill, trop Coloré, trop ci, trop cela…pas assez classique Le Lab ???
