Established among recording and mastering engineers, Manley’s ELOP optical all-tube limiter has played its part in shaping countless recordings. Nearly a quarter of a century after its release, Manley Labs have issues an improved version – the ELOP+.
Now with integrated stereo compressor, the ELOP+ retains the same controls and functionality as the original model. Advancements in technology have enabled Manley Labs to create an improved layout, giving the ELOP+ a new solid metal chassis and faceplate design. The output stage has been re-engineered to enhance the signal path, and a new ultra-low impedance switched mode power supply is standard.
‘With the ELOP+, we’ve truly stepped it up a notch, both in sonic quality and versatility,’ says Manley Labs President and co-founder, EveAnna Manley. ‘What’s even better, thanks to our streamlined production and increased buying power, the cost of a new ELOP+ is lower than the original ELOP.’
The ELOP+ is expected to ship in Q1 2016 with an MSRP of US a$2500.
