The original “Bluey” is Chris Lord-Alge’s not-so-secret weapon; the heavily-modified 2U compressor thats been heard on countless hits. Having undergone years of odd fixes, modifications, and upgrades, the original Bluey was a singular and unique piece of studio unobtainium — until Black Lion Audio got their mitts and voltmeters on it. After working with Chris to reverse-engineer untold years’ worth of mods, component replacements, and upgrades, Black Lion Audio was able to make the legendary Bluey sound available to the world with the introduction of the original 2U Bluey compressor. Of course, they added a few features along the way without sacrificing what makes Bluey what it is. Black Lion firmly believe that everybody deserves a li’l Bluey in their life, so they’re proud to bring the world another li’l Bluey — the Bluey 500 — ready to add that unmistakable blue-striped mojo to your 500-series rack. You get all the squeeze, heft, and grit of the original Bluey in just two 500-series slots — a fraction of the original’s footprint. NEW FEATURES, NEW SOUNDS To get the exacting detail that Chris Lord-Alge has enjoyed from the original Bluey, Black Lion not only used custom Cinemag transformers, they actually recreated his console’s insert path and built it right into Bluey — giving everyone the same console feel! Of course, they didn’t stop there: Black Lion also added an active wet/dry mix for easy parallel compression, as well as a stereo link! Bluey 500 was designed with a vintage-inspired PCB layout, 1% resistors, and polyester capacitors — meaning that Bluey 500 is built to last! And like all Black Lion products, Bluey 500 is hand-tested, calibrated and QC'd in the USA. FEATURES: 500-series recreation of Chris Lorde-Alge’s most prized 1176 — used on every lead vocal he mixes 2 Cinemag transformers; a recreation of the original UTC input transformer and a recreation of the original Reichenbach output transformer Wet/Dry mix knob allows for parallel compression not available on the original Stereo-linkable Input and Output buffering taken directly from Chris Lorde-Alge’s console inserts Hand-tested, calibrated and QC'd in the USA About Us Since 1993, we have been committed to equipping our customers with the very best gear, advice, and personal service anywhere.
