Unlike the classic it offers a stereo link and an insert in the sidechain, the two things the original lacked most.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStereo link: two units start behaving as one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo independent limiters on left and right respond to signal separately, so a louder element on one side shifts the whole stereo image. A stereo link ties the detection of both units together, so reduction is shared and the panorama stays put. On a bus that is not an option but a requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA sidechain insert, meaning control over what the limiter reacts to\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePatching an equalizer into the control path lets you take the bottom out of detection so the kick does not pump the whole mix, or the opposite — sharpen the response to sibilance for de-essing. This is the element that turns a limiter from one sound into a tool with many uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-channel hybrid limiter: solid-state and tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign inspired by the Fairchild 666 circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo link for working as a pair on a bus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInsert in the sidechain path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse on individual tracks and on the stereo bus\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned and built by Mercury Recording Equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: studio limiter, hybrid construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChannels: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReference circuit: Fairchild 666\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFunctions: stereo link, sidechain insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRevision: MKII\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Mercury Recording Equipment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54828325208401,"sku":"60900","price":4465.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/eu-mercury-666-mkii-1.jpg?v=1788991610","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/products\/mercury-666-mkii","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
