Manley SLAM

SLAM!

SLAM! stands for "Stereo Limiter And MicPre" and it pretty much describes what it will do to most VU meters. We had to
put a switch on this limiter to drop its internal VU meters down 3 & 6dB to keep the poor little "needles" from bending–
it'll get LOUD fast (hence the exclamation mark). And on top of being an amazing pair of (actually four) Limiters, and
Class A tube mic preamps, it also has masters degrees in DI, AtoD and DtoA, VU and PPM but that was too much for
an acronym.

When it comes to classic gear, especially classic limiters, we can all agree numbers like LA2s, 1176s, 2264s, and
others come to mind. What if those sounds were combined into one stereo tube unit. Interested? We combined our
favorite Electro-Optical circuit with a damn fast FET based brick-wall limiter reminiscent of some cool classics. And we
added a sidechain filter that can remove low frequencies that makes it more useful for a variety of tasks, while retaining
that easy, "it just works" quality that has made it a favorite for vocals everywhere. The FET based limiter has different
desirable characteristics that both optimise the signal for digital recording, due to the brick-wall capability and let you
"dial in" how clean or crunchy, or punchy, & how loud and proud you want it. Manley is excited to announce the SLAM!

GET IN:

The SLAM! starts with tube Mic Preamps on both channels with switchable phantom power and phase reverse. We’ve
got plenty of gain for you in this new tube circuit, up to 60dB with 20dB more in the limiter, plenty for soft singers using
low output ribbon mics. The input attenuator is right up front, like a variable pad so your loud rock ‘n’ rollers won’t cause
a problem either. Track direct with the Direct Instrument input or bring your line level inputs into the SLAM! for
processing. Come on in!

Digital? No problem.

There is a slot in the back for our optional 24 Bit/192KHz Analog to Digital converter and Digital to Analog converter card.
This allows you to record directly to your computer or workstation and provides a convenient way to use a digital insert
to jump into the analog realm and back. AES and SPDIF digital inputs receive your stereo digital signal to convert to
analog for processing by the SLAM! when the DAC input is selected. Or just take advantage of this killer DAC and use
the DAC Output for monitoring, listening, or to go out to some other analog processors or tape machines.
