Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
THE BUS+ brings SSL’s bus-compressor design into a 2-channel analog processor with considerably broader control over the result. Four operating modes and three compression-colouration options provide different approaches to compression, from clean and punchy to gritty or heavily saturated parallel work. Beyond compression, it adds a Dynamic Equalizer and Transient Expander, plus XLR inputs, outputs, external inputs, and external sends for flexible routing. It is a 19-inch, 3.5-inch-high unit powered by an auto-ranging 100–240VAC supply.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Mix engineers who need bus compression alongside dynamic equalization and transient expansion in one processor.
- Studio routing setups that need XLR inputs, outputs, external inputs, and external sends.
- Sessions requiring selectable compression modes and three distinct colouration options.
