« on: September 22, 2005, 06:02:20 PM »

Hi folks
May you guys comment about the 9098Amek/Neve dual compressor/limiter? Is it fine for mastering also? Is it in the same league as the OCL2?
Thanks for any info

I've never heard them - but I believe Michael Fossenkemper uses them at Turtle Tone - but I think he's had his heavily modded - don't know what the mods are though.  Maybe he'll chime in here.

Best regards,

I have 3 and they are modded. I had Amek replace some of the pots. As for mastering??? it has it's place. It's a colored compressor that errors on the side of gentle. I like the transformers in it and i'll add it in for a bit of color but not really anything else. the needles almost don't even move. I use them mostly for surround stuff as I like their gentle nature in this format. But for 2 track stuff, they aren't much use. For individual elements, the are quite good and versatile.
