Two Vintage Equalizer & Compressor / Limiter Modules In One Bundle!
Mr. Rupert Neve, whose name is synonymous with the highest quality audio recording equipment, recently died at the age of 94. With a staggering career-spanning 80 years, Rupert and Neve™ have created amazing mixing consoles and audio tools that have revolutionized the way we all make and produce music.
One of Bernie’s proudest achievements is the British Bundle – a set of plugins inspired by the famous Equalizer and Master Bus Compressor/Limiter found in Neve‘s consoles:
– British MCL-2269 – A Master Compressor Limiter inspired by the legendary 2254 compressor.
– British NEQ-1972 – A Four-Band equalizer inspired by the classic-vintage 1081 EQ module.
These plugins have been used by countless producers who are looking for plugins that approach the magic and color found in Neve‘s analog gear.
Note: These plugins are not yet compatible with macOS 10.15 (Catalina) or above. Native Apple Silicon/M1 chips are not supported at this time.

British MLC-2269 Compressor Limiter
The British MLC-2269 is a simple and elegant Master Compressor Limiter (MCL). The British MCL-2269 is the perfect choice for a truly “British-Style” vintage compression sound by adding warmth and vintage compression to your music.
Features
- Input – Sets the overall input level of the MCL-2269 (dB). This control is useful to adjust the input level gain before applying compression to the signal.
- Output – Sets the overall output level of the MCL-2269 (dB). This control is useful to adjust the output level gain after it has been reduced from applying compression to the signal.
- Vintage – With the switch in the ‘On’ position, the MCL-2269 recreates the harmonic distortion and noise level of the original modeled hardware processor, when activated, the red LED above the switch is illuminated.
- Power – With the switch in the ‘On’ position, the MCL-2269 is activated, and the red LED above the switch is illuminated.
Limiter Section
- Limit – With the switch in the ‘On’ position, the Limiter section is activated, and the red LED above the switch is illuminated.
- Limit Level – Sets the threshold level of the Limiter section above which the device begins to limit the signal. The amount of reduced level is shown on the Limit Gain Reduction meter.
- Attack – The time, measured in milliseconds (ms), it takes for the limiter to reach its maximum level on the sound.
- Release – 100 ms, 200 ms, 800 ms, Auto; Default: Auto. Controls how long (ms) it takes to release a signal from the limiter once it has dipped below your specified threshold.
Compressor Section
- Comp – With the switch in the ‘On’ position, the Compressor section is activated, and the red LED above the switch is illuminated.
- Threshold – Sets the decibel (dB) threshold to the level at which the compressor begins to work.
- Ratio – This sets the amount of compression ratio, in dB, applied to a signal once it violates your pre-set threshold. A ratio of 4:1 will output 1 dB for every 4 dB of input signal that exceeds your targeted threshold.
- Release – 400 ms, 800 ms, 1500 ms, Auto; Default: 400 ms. Controls how long (ms) it takes to release a signal from the compressor once it has dipped below your specified threshold.
- Comp Gain – Sets the overall output level of the compressor section (dB).

- LP Selector – This control determines the frequency of the Low Pass filter, 5 frequencies are available: 3.9, 5.6, 8.7, 12, 18 kHz.
- Low Freq (Band 1) – 33, 56, 100, 180, 330 Hz. Selects the cut-off frequency for the EQ (Band 1) filter section.
- Low Freq (Band 1) – Shelf/Peaking Switch. This switch determines the type of filter equalization (shelving or peaking).
- Lo-Mid Freq (Band 2) – 220, 270, 330, 390, 470, 560, 680, 820, 1000, 1200 Hz. Selects the cut-off frequency for the EQ (Band 2) filter section.
- Lo-Mid (Band 2) – HiQ Switch. This controls the width of the Lo-Mid frequency curve from normal ‘Broad’ to HiQ ‘Sharp’
- Hi-Mid Freq (Band 3) – 1.5, 1.8, 2.2, 2.7, 3.3, 3.9, 4.7, 5.6, 8.2 kHz. Selects the cut-off frequency for the EQ (Band 3) filter section.
- Hi-Mid (Band 3) – HiQ Switch. This controls the width of the Hi-Mid frequency curve from normal ‘Broad’ to HiQ ‘Sharp’.
- High Freq (Band 4) – 3.3, 4.7, 6.8, 10, 15 Hz. Selects the cut-off frequency for the EQ (Band 4) filter section.
- High Freq (Band 4) – Shelf/Peaking Switch. This switch determines the type of filter equalization (shelving or peaking).
- Gain (Band 1 to Band 4) – ± 18 dB. The Gain control is continuously variable with up to +18 dB of boost or -18 dB of cut.
- Power: On or Off – With the switch in the ‘On’ position, the equalizer is activated, and the red LED above the switch is illuminated.
- Output – ± 18 dB7. Sets the overall output level of the effect (dB).
- Vintage: On or Off – With the switch in the ‘On’ position, the NEQ-1081 recreates the harmonic distortion and noise level of the original modeled hardware processor.
