- Neve’s 33609/N is a stereo compressor/limiter notable for its smooth and transparent sound, making it an excellent choice for mix bus and mastering duties. Evolved from Neve’s vintage 2254 diode bridge design, 33609 remains a studio staple since it’s original release in 1985 - this latest “N” version being their most comprehensively featured to date.
33609/N utilises Neve’s hand wound transformers and a discrete output stage for a warmer sound. The compressor precedes the limiter stage with highly versatile control options and independent side chains for each section.
This series of “Virtual Demo Room” videos is designed to replicate how customers typically demo processors in our North London (UK) store. No talking, just audio so you can make up your own mind.

Everyone goes on about the old metal knob version, but I like this one. It's crisp.
You can think of 33609/N as Neve's modern take on the original "metal knob" version, with hand-wired transformers made to the original 1970’s Marinair specs, a return to toggle switches rather than the large square buttons introduced after the “J” version and a new fast/slow compressor attack setting. Kind of an "enhanced" metal knob re-issue, with a slightly cleaner "modern" sound overall... 👍
i have the metal knob and the plasitk knob version. They are both shit.
Bravo ! I always liked your videos demo of gear, I find them the most interesting because me being 61, I don't always hear the subtil differences of audio gear, but your demo videos made clear what's happening, and I can hear clearly the differences between bypass and active. I had the same impression with the video of Gainlab Audio Dictator you made a while ago, and I bought it. I can not buy the Neve 33609 because I already have the Heritage Audio HA-33609A that I love very much and which is more affordable to me. I assume that the Neve might be a little better though, but if money wasn't an issue....😀
Hi Michel, many thanks for the kind words - glad you find them useful! And yes, we're big fans of the Dictator here - Gainlab are a great company to deal with 👍
Can't wait to receive my unit! 😍
You can´t even hear the difference through your cheap Neumann rooky speakers. You should have rather invested the 4k for the 33609 in reasonable monitors.
@@Pottwerke Since when are the Neumann KH310 cheap rooky speakers? 🤔 And what are reasonable monitors in your opinion?
@@AlanMorrisTV yes, cheap monitors, ok for beginners but made in China. If you really wanne hear a difference in the mix you need strauss elektroakustik, atc, guzauski swist, pmc, or Barefoot. Every other monitors are excuses and compromises, like your Neumann.
@@Pottwerke Of course there are even better ones, I've already heard the Strauss monitors extensively in a studio, they sound fantastic, but they're way over my budget with 70k.
I can work with the Neumann speakers, they are pretty good even for that price range of 5k together with the Neumann KH750 sub and calibrated with MA1.
What is your opinion on the ATC SCM25A Pro MKII?
Your demo videos are excellent! If only had the cash to buy one of these beauties haha
Many thanks! 👍
just go working.
@@Pottwerke yes. just go working.
@@donkeyfacekilla1 yes. just go working.
@@Pottwerke yes.
do you think for mastering is necessary that Side chain or HPF that have some more new compresor so it don't react so much to low frequencies. or no. or just a slow attack can do the trick ?????
sam question
Can you do Chandler Zener.
I think we're looking at Terry CEQ or Manley Massive Passive next, but we'll put it on the list 👍
