AMS NEVE 2264ALB

The influential and revered classic – compact.

Compact yet extremely powerful, the 2264ALB pushes the classic design into the modern age. Discrete Class A/B circuitry, custom-designed Marinair® transformers, and unique diode bridge design make this processor, with independent compressor and limiter circuitry, unmatched.

The 2264ALB uses exclusive Marinair® specification transformers on the input, bridge-driver, sidechain, and output stages to produce analogue characters throughout.

General Specification

• Classic mono Limiter/Compressor, available in a 500-series format
• Transformer-coupled circuits used in Input, Bridge-driver, Side-chain and Output stages
• Independent Limiter and Compressor IN/OUT selectors
• BYPASS switch connects input terminals directly to output terminals
• Slow Attack switch changes between classic 2264A attack settings and new Slow Attack setting for buss compression work
• Digital LED meter with approximate PPM ballistics indicates 0dB to 20dB of gain reduction
• Audio Processing Insert design allows the audio to/from the 2264ALB module to be inserted into the audio path of an existing 1073LB module (modules must be fitted in the same 500-series rack)
• Compatible 500-series rack/enclosure with Power Supply and line-level input/output connectors required, not supplied.
