"Introducing another member of the BLA product line: the AGB Compressor. An homage to the venerable Neve 33609, the AGB is a two-channel diode compressor and limiter housed in a 2U rack mount chassis. Imagine a quick, responsive, low-noise compressor with powerful control features. It does everything from smooth and easy compression to weird rhythmic clicks to funky envelope tricks. It's insanely fast and doesn't choke when you really push it. Strap it across your drum bus and smash away. Give your snare a nice, dense crack. Use it for program material. The slower attack mode is great for vocals. Whatever you use it on, you’ll find it does the job well, and without raising the noise floor. So where does our design differ from the original? For one, the signal path is a fully balanced, opamp-based circuit. While we’re using rotary potentiometers instead of stepped potentiometers, we’ve given you more control over things like input level and attack time. Like the original, the AGB uses input, interstage, and output transformers."
Voor een kleine 900 dollar toch niet echt verkeerd lijkt me....meer info op de facebook page van BLA.

Maar serieus; als dit in de buurt komt van een echte 33609 dan is dit geweldig nieuws en zou ik deze comp altijd boven bvb. een Drawmer 1968 of die SSL clone (die ene die hier laatst wel op de FP mocht staan) kiezen als busscomp tot 1K om het itb geweld mee te kleuren.
Misschien dat de clock in de a16s gewoon gaar is, maar iedereen die het hoort is er eigenlijk wel verbaasd over hoeveel het in deze combi scheelt. (mits goed aangesloten, op eigen stopkontakt, anders ga je idd al heel snel de jitter horen waar Katz en Larvy het over hebben)
