Black Friday Deal: 10% Off Pope Audio (11/22/2021 - 12/6/2021) Product Spotlight: Pope Audio BAX 2020 Classic The Pope Audio BAX2020 EQ And Drive utilizes a Baxandall EQ circuit, a design that was originally developed by Peter Baxandall in the early 1950s. What's the difference between a Baxandall EQ and traditional EQ? It's simple. While traditional EQs feature a fast rise above a set frequency, Baxandall EQs employ a gently rising slope that makes for a more natural sound. Developed for the 500 Series format, each BAX2020 features Hi and Lo frequency gain controls. This makes dialing in your ideal sound extremely easy. There is also a button that allows for hard bypass when you don't want to use the EQ. With all this being said, there are four different options, each of which will give you a bit of a different vibe.
Black Friday Deal: 10% Off Purple Audio Gear (11/22/2021 - 12/6/2021) Product Spotlight: Purple Audio MC77 FET Compressor Purple Audio’s MC77 has long been a favorite choice for engineers wanting a great sounding FET compressor without the pitfalls of owning a vintage unit. Purple designed the MC77 to recreate the exact sound of the 1176 Rev E, and the MC77 nails just that by use of a fully discrete transistor audio path and a transformer balanced design. Modern updates to the design include the “OFF” setting under the attack knob, which allows users to bypass compression and simply take advantage of the coloration of the Purple unit.
Black Friday Deal: Free RNHP With Rupert Neve Designs 5254 or MBC (11/22/2021 - 11/29/2021) Product Spotlight: Rupert Neve Designs 5254 Dual Diode Bridge Compressor As one of the most revered vintage compressors, the Neve 2254 offers lush, creamy compression sounds by use of a comprehensive diode bridge design. That vintage unit has since become one of the rarest, highest dollar items on the market, making it unreachable to many engineers. Enter the Rupert Neve Designs' 5254, a 1U rack unit that offers two channels of the same compression with modern flexibility. A front panel Blend control gives engineers easy access to parallel compression sounds, and a HPF control allows the compressor not to be dragged into reduction by excess low end. When you pick up a 5254 or MBC during Black Friday, you'll receive a free RNHP with your order.

Incredible transient response sets the Spectra designs apart with higher headroom that keeps the punch and clarity of your drums and transient sounds intact. There is astounding frequency response from a subsonic 10 Hz all the way up to 50 kHz, which ensures that the sounds reproduced are ultra-lifelike.

Black Friday Deal: Save $100 on TK Audio BC-501GR (11/1/2021 - 12/31/2021) Product Spotlight: TK Audio BC-501GR Sweden’s TK Audio brought us the BC501 in 2015, and one good look at the unit reveals its heritage as a VCA style buss compressor. Incredibly transparent, the BC501 imparts smooth, glue-style buss compression with updated features that set it apart from the British console classic. The unit’s Grab feature modifies the threshold for a harder knee, a particularly great option on drum mixes. You’ll also notice the selectable High Pass Filter options, allowing you to control how much low end is detected for gain reduction – a feature instantly making the unit more flexible than the classic compressor that inspired it. Another excellent tool is the one knob Blend control, making parallel compression a breeze to dial in.

This original design utilizes 12AX7 tubes and delivers a big, hefty tube sound while allowing the user to dial in their favorite sweet spot. Traverse Analogue uses Lundahl transformers on the input and output stage (for that discrete console-style sound), in addition to Beldfoil wiring and gold plated switching relays. For the modern studio wanting tube flavor with flexibility, it’s incredibly hard to beat the sound and build quality of the Traverse Analogue 652.
