AN EVOLUTION OF THE LEGENDARY TONE MACHINE
Recording software companies often boast about their “mixer,” but discerning engineers won’t settle for in-the-box mixing when the dimension, punch, and articulation of analog summing can vastly improve their productions. Phoenix’s Nicerizer series summing mixers incorporate features and circuitry that have made it a legendary tone machine.
The distinction between a stereo mixer and a summing amplifier is important when considering your hybrid analog/digital rig. In essence, a mixer incorporates a fuller range of features. The Nicerizer is a true mixer, bringing elements like circuit overdrive and panning back into the analog realm, where they outperform digital emulations. Our detented pan-pots are unmatched for precision stereo placement and recall, contributing to the huge, open sound of the Nicerizer.
With the Nicerizer, Phoenix takes a modern approach to Class-A circuit design. The unique transformerless input stage delivers the full frequency spectrum with unrivaled clarity and punch. Transformers can slow transients (slew rates), limiting tonal range, but the electronically balanced input stage can be driven modestly for ultra-clear hi-fi sound. Alternatively, engage the drive switch on any of the 16 channels individually to drive the circuit for a fatter, more saturated sound that only discrete Class-A buffer amps and custom-wound output transformers can deliver.
Once mixed, the stereo signal hits a pair of custom-wound DB694 output transformers, coupled with Phoenix’s proprietary, fully discrete DSOP-2 output amplifier. The DSOP-2, developed by Phoenix’s head designer David Rees, represents the pinnacle of Class-A output circuits, offering a smooth transition from ultra-clean tones to beautifully saturated tones.
The Phoenix Audio Nicerizer 16-Channel Analog Summing Mixer brings the full clarity, punch, and dimension of analog summing into the digital age, making it an essential tool for hybrid studios.
