This essential passive Audio Magic Blue Nev-5554 tone-box brings depth, color, detail, improved sonic image, spacial separation, harmonics, volume boost and glue to your audio mix. Low-frequency phase shift enhances bass frequencies. Dual switches on the front panel allow you to select 1:1 or 1:2 operation. Low through mid frequencies are enhanced in an amazing way when audio is passed through a step-up transformer. These are the same British manufactured transformers used to service Neve equipment, and are partly responsible for that classic Neve sound. Dubbed the Audio Magic Blue Nev-5554, this piece of gear will add buttery smooth character and enhanced low end to your audio recordings and mixes. Sounds are glued together via electromagnetic signal conversion.
