Neve 33609/N Limiter Compressor

The Neve 33609/N is a classic diode-bridge compressor/limiter, revered as a studio standard for over four decades. Originally introduced in the early 1980s, it has evolved through several refinements while maintaining the unmistakable sonic character that made it a benchmark in recording, mastering, post-production, and broadcast.

Housed in a rugged 2U rackmount chassis, the 33609/N offers two independent compressor/limiters, usable in mono, stereo, or linked multi-channel configurations. Its discrete Class-A design delivers the musical warmth and punch associated with vintage Neve dynamics, while providing flexible fast/slow attack times, multiple release settings, and variable threshold controls.

Faithful to the original circuitry yet enhanced with additional control options and a timeless front-panel design, the 33609/N remains the desert island choice for engineers seeking precision, reliability, and unmistakable Neve tone.

Excellent working and visual condition, carefully serviced and cleaned by our tech team.
