Manley NU MU

The Manlye Nu Mu is a stereo limiter compressor that features an all valve front end (based off the highly regarded Variable Mu) followed by a solid state audio chain to give the user smooth dynamics that don't sacrifice punch, presence or pop.

Making use of Manley's HIP function, the Nu Mu can tighten dynamic control and smoothly and organically bring up lower level details without losing the energy and excitement out of your transients, essentially a focus of compression on low level signals that largely leaves louder signals uncoloured. Handbuilt in California, the Nu Mu is ergonomically designed with a sleek modern look and is a great addition to any studio. Crush it!
