Operation

The UAD Neve 33609 is a two-channel device capable of running in stereo
or dual-mono modes. The active mode is determined by the mono/stereo
switch (see
mono-in/mono-out configuration, the channel 2 controls are disabled.
Each channel consists of a compressor and a limiter. Each of these functions
has its own separate group of controls. Since the controls for each of the two
channels are identical, they are detailed only once.
Note:
see
In the 33609, the output of the compressor is fed to the input of the limiter.
Signal Flow
Like the original hardware, the signal does not flow "from the left to the right"
of the interface. Understanding this signal flow will help you obtain a more
predictable result (see
Figure 75. Signal flow within UAD Neve 33609
Modeling The UAD Neve 33609 models all aspects of the original 33609 hardware,
including the desirable harmonic distortion characteristics. These qualities are
more prominent at higher input levels (see
more info).
When the compressor and limiter are both disabled, some (good) coloration
of the signal occurs, just like the hardware. If a true bypass is desired, use the
power switch
