态度、侵略感与力量

Marc Daniel Nelson 再次与 Pulsar Modular 携手合作,带来一款令人兴奋的全新插件。

在寻找那些具有独特历史背景的录音室设备时,Marc 从伦敦著名 Wessex Studios 的一名前技术人员手中购得了一台极其罕见的 2252

Wessex Studios 曾以制作大量 20 世纪 70、80 年代朋克摇滚专辑而闻名,包括 The Clash、The Sex Pistols、The Pretenders、Queen 等众多艺人的作品。而这台 2252,亲历了这一切。

它采用的是一款 1968 年 Neve 设计,只进行过非常短暂的一批生产,随后锗器件逐渐被硅器件取代。这台设备在那个创造音乐历史的房间里度过了数十年。

经过近两年的研发,Pulsar Modular 与 Marc Daniel Nelson 共同打造出了市场上最独特的压缩器之一。

这款设备在早期曾被形容为“无法使用”,但最终却成为塑造 态度(Attitude)、侵略感(Aggression)与力量(Power) 这一独特声音的重要秘密武器。

一种令人着迷、充满个性的声音特质。

态度、侵略感与力量。简直太迷人了……

作为我此前插件作品 P455 MDN SidecarP821 MDN Tape 的延续,我再次踏上了一段回溯记忆的旅程,去探索那些与音乐紧密相连、同时也是我个人历史与热情所在的声音。

这一切始于 26 年多以前。那时我开始痴迷于声音所拥有的魔力与个性。

为什么有些专辑听起来如此强劲、独特,而另一些作品却显得更加亲密、自然、有机?

在寻找那些拥有独特历史背景的录音室设备时,我发现了一些始终不变的东西。

有时候,它是一件真正的历史遗物——例如曾经用于某张经典专辑录制的录音室设备。

而在另一些时候,它可能是一件非常熟悉、很容易接触到的设备。

但我的热情始终与那些独一无二的器材紧密相连。

它们不仅在设计上极其罕见,甚至在整个生产历史中,真正制造出来的数量也少得可怜。

它们就是隐藏在幕后、真正的“秘密武器”。

Attitude, aggression and power.

Marc Daniel Nelson and Pulsar Modular once again partner for an exciting new plugin. In Marc’s search for unique, history-driven studio gear, he purchased this extremely rare 2252 from a former tech of the famous Wessex Studios in London. Incredibly famous for producing the majority of the 1970’s and 80s punk albums for artists like The Clash, The Sex Pistols, The Pretenders, Queen and many more. This 2252 was present for all of it. It is a 1968 Neve design that ran for one short production window before germanium gave way to silicon and spent decades in the room where music history was made. After nearly two years of development, Pulsar Modular and Marc Daniel Nelson designed one of the most unique compressors on the market. What was once described as unusable in its early days became a staple for the sound of Attitude, Aggression and Power.

Attitude, Aggression and Power. Freaking sweet…

As an extension of my previous plugin releases, the P455 MDN Sidecar and the P821 MDN Tape, I wanted to embark once again on a journey down memory lane to talk about my history and passion for the sounds within music.

It all started well over 26 years ago when I became obsessed with the magic and personalities of sonics, why some albums sounded powerful and unique, while others felt more intimate and organic.

In my search for unique, history-driven studio gear, I have found many things to be constant. Sometimes it’s a piece of history, whether that be studio gear used on a historic album. Other times, it’s something very familiar and easily accessible. My passions have always connected to one-of-a-kind gear. Things that are incredibly rare, both in design and in the number ever made. The secret weapon.
