Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A single-channel Neve limiter/compressor in module form, for engineers adding hardware dynamics to an existing outboard rack rather than buying a finished box.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Tracking vocals or bass through hardware before conversion
  • Adding one high-end dynamics channel to an outboard rack
  • Rooms that already own a compatible module enclosure

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone needing stereo out of the box — one channel
  • Plugin-based mixing where outboard adds no real workflow gain
  • Budget-limited setups; the cost is per single channel

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Neve 2264ALB Limiter/Compressor Module construction detail

Detail 01

It's a module, not a finished rack unit

No case, no power supply, no connectors of its own. You supply a compatible enclosure to run it.

Detail 02

Single channel

One signal path. Stereo bus duty needs a second unit, and matching two units takes setup time.

Detail 03

Limiter and compressor in one path

Compression rides average level; limiting catches peaks. Both jobs handled at the input stage before recording.

Detail 04

$1,495 for one channel

Cost scales linearly with channel count. Eight channels of this is an eight-unit purchase, plus the housing.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Confirm your enclosure accepts this module's format and power draw
  2. 02No rack, PSU, or cabling is part of this purchase
  3. 03Hardware compression is committed on the way in — set it conservatively

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Can I use this on its own?

No. It's a module, so it needs a compatible powered enclosure to supply power and connections before it will pass audio.

02Is this stereo?

It's one channel. Stereo requires two units in the same enclosure, with settings dialed in to match on both.

03Can I use it on a mix bus?

Only in a matched pair. A single unit works on individual tracks, subgroups summed to mono, or as a mono insert.

04Does it work as an insert on my interface?

Yes, once it's in an enclosure with line-level I/O. Patch it into your interface's insert or send/return like any outboard processor.
