Neve 33314 Racked Pair (Vintage)

Excellent condition pair, in a Dan Alexander custom rack with metering.

If one had to pick one compressor/limiter to take on a trip to record on a desert island in the South Pacific, they would be hard pressed to find a better choice than a 33314, 32264 or 33609.

The 33314 is a narrow frame broadcast version of the classic Neve 32264 (both of which are modular versions of the classic 'metal knob' and other discrete versions of the 33609, 81069 and other variants).

The compressor section is known for its fast attack and adjustable release versatility with a quick, low distortion limiter that is virtually invisible sounding. Great on stereo mix and instrument back buss work (killer on drum or guitar buss) let alone individual tracks and vocals. Many feel it is the finest solid state vocal comp/lim ever made. Fast and punchy.

Price includes VK premium servicing, a $910 value.
