O compressor varimu mais versátil que já usei.
Melhora o timbre de tudo que passa por ele. A construção do equipamento é impecável e a estética maravilhosa.
TRANSFORMERS
The AH124 features an oversized input transformer, housed in a dedicated Mu-Metal shielded enclosure, designed to minimize electromagnetic interference and radio frequency noise. This solution ensures operational silence and preserves the compressor's sonic character.
DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
The entire mechanical assembly is developed by Analog Heroes. The robust chassis was designed to safely house the tube circuitry and transformers, ensuring durability, thermal stability, and reliability for continuous studio use.
MANUAL ASSEMBLY
Each AH124 is hand-assembled in our lab, following a careful process of assembly, testing, and calibration. The units are produced in small batches, ensuring strict quality control and consistent performance, in line with the philosophy of classic variable-mu compressors.
The RS124 was born out of EMI engineers' dissatisfaction with an Altec 436B compressor imported from the United States. In 1959, Bill Livy, Len Page, and Mike Batchelor revamped the equipment, creating a new device.
No two units were alike: constant adjustments to components resulted in distinct timbres and response times, making each piece more suitable for a specific function, whether recording, bus processing, or mastering. Only about 25 units were produced, and few have survived.
Geoff Emerick used the RS124 to give weight to bass, Ken Scott to enrich guitars, and Norman Smith to tie together the rhythm section. At Abbey Road, it was common to force gain reductions of between 15 and 20 dB, which created dense and full-bodied textures.
After years of being forgotten, the RS124s have returned to use, and modern engineers have rediscovered their charm, considering the 1959 design equivalent or superior to many current pieces of equipment.
