Quick Start: Master Bus Converter 

³35t11

Very high-end converters are the primary use for tracking / mix capture, the limiter / silk are secondary.

Did you ever get going with yours? Got my second coming in this week and I’d be more than happy to help you out brother ✌️

If all you have is the Neve MBP I doubt it would be overkill but you will get very similar coloration I'd assume, and you maybe won't get much use out of the silk mode since the MBP has it already. Well, you can always try to combine both ofc, there are no rules. Keep in mind that this is first and foremost a high end A/D converter, this is the main reason you should purchase it, if you need to upgrade your conversion. The other functions are nice little cherries on top. A typical case where this would be overkill is for someone who already has multiple colorful and transformer-balanced units in their mix buss/mastering chain as well as great conversion (unless they absolutely want to replace their converters with the MBC).

yeah, the two should work great together. The limiter on the MBP could be used with the blend down to be a better combination with the MBC, or you could just compress / SFE on the MBP and limit on the MBC (you could experiment with what works best for the silk, the blue silk is a little different on the MBP due to transformer design differences, but you could play with different combinations / texture levels between the two

Hi , You just need one cable between them with link pushed on both, and you still need to set the settings to match on each unit so that they trigger equally. Keep in mind often stereo compressors can sound better / more stereo unlinked so be sure to listen both ways.

@@RupertNeveDesigns Thank you!

@@RupertNeveDesigns just a thought, have RND thought about making a switcher box for outboard gear so the small studio won't have to patch much? Say about 8 pieces of outboard gear connected to one box allowing us to mix up the orders, bypass and maybe save setting. with the silk of course!!!

@@prodjincmusicproductions6587 you might want to look at Flock Audio PATCH, it does exactly what you're asking for. I have a pair for my rack...
