Description:
— A line amplifier that boosted the volume on every track.
At its core is a Motown-style line amplifier with enough memory to manage every track in your session. Tone shaping, sound coloring, transformer saturation, Mid/Side metering, and mastering workflow—all in one device.
Overview:
The Pulsar Modular P42 Climax is an innovative, multi-functional network filter for shaping/coloring sound, adding richness, and creating the feel of working with multiple professional audio devices. The P42 Climax starts with a hardware linear amplifier and finishes processing each individual track, thanks to its powerful processing power (over 300 instances in a single session). Create the perfect sound by processing a single instrument, groups of tracks, a dual bus, or even mastering. The sound is simply… incredible!
The P42 Climax is a chameleon, capable of assimilating a variety of hardware devices, each adding its own unique flavor to the sound, but never intended to replicate any one! The P42 Climax works wonders with drum buses, snare drums, and, of course, bass guitar. Placing the P42 on a dual-bus track instantly unlocks the potential of your mix and reveals hidden talents. With Mid/Side processing, detailed level metering (peak, RMS, and LUFS), and automatic gain compensation, the P42 fits perfectly into your mastering chain, becoming an indispensable tool for most mastering engineers worldwide.
