Manley Slam Mastering Version

The Mastering Version of the SLAM! incorporating detented and logable 1/2dB steps built with 1% metal film resistors on sealed gold-contact Grayhill switches is in full production. Differences and Features, yes there are some differences and features:

First off: no microphone preamps. You mastering engineers certainly don’t need those. The mic pre and input select switch are removed and the switches become dedicated “mode” switches one each for the ELOP and the FET limiters.The ELOP limiter gets more Ratios.  The FET limiters get new modes that are 50%, NORM, LP Lim, BOTH, and CLIP.
