Buzz Audio VELOX-DC — The Velox opto compreesor from Buzz Audio delivers vintage analog audio compression with optical gain reduction with advanced features for modern recording.
“Dual channel legacy optical compressor with discrete amplifier signal path.”
VELOX-DC er discrete versionen — udstyret med Buzz Audios håndbyggede Class A BE41 discrete transistor-forstærkere. Sammenlignet med IC versionen leverer de discrete kredsløb en rigere, mere detaljeret lyd med større headroom, hurtigere transient-respons og en mere tredimensionel lydscene.
Discrete version med BE41 Class A opamps — rigere, mere detaljeret lyd med større headroom.
Buzz Audio er en newzealandsk producent af high-end analog outboard — håndbygget i Wellington siden 1993. Hver enhed gennemgår omhyggelig kalibrering og test før levering. Buzz Audio er kendt for deres unikke Class A discrete forstærkerdesign (BE40/BE41/BE44) og innovative brug af passive komponenter som ægte induktor-chokes i EQ-designs.
