Zener Limiter with PSU-1

The EMI TG12413 Zener Limiter is the ultimate TG limiter issued in celebration of the 75th birthday of Abbey Road Studios. The Zener Limiter was conceived by Chandler Limited designer Wade Goeke and is based on the vintage EMI circuits used to record The Beatles and Pink Floyd. It continues the tradition of EMI Limiters started in 1954 with the RS114 tube limiter and the 1968 RS168 Zener Limiter. The Zener Limiters were also part of the 1969 TG12345 console channel and the 1974 TG12413. This newest version borrows from the RS168 Zener Limiter and TG12345 console strip to make a new full featured and flexible unit for modern use.

The Zener Limiter is being reissued to add features and flexibility to the powerful and vintage sounding TG limiter circuits. Wade has added many new controls including switchable input impedance for hard or soft driving of the unit, 11-position attack, 21-position release, side chain filtering, and Comp 1, Comp 2, and Limit settings.

All TG units require and function on the PSU-1, Chandler Limited power supply. The PSU-1 has an internal switch for setting voltage to 120V or 220V (115V/230V).

Abbey Road Studios, EMI and TG and their associated logos are trade marks of EMI (IP) Limited.

Product Overview
The Chandler Limited TG12413 Zener Limiter, built under license from EMI and Abbey Road, is a compressor / limiter which is heavily based on the circuitry of the EMI console limiters from 1960s and 1970s.

The Zener Limiter is an all-discrete, transformer-coupled unit which expands upon Chandler's more "standard" TG1, adding several sidechain high-pass filter options, and significantly more timing controls for both attack and release, making the TG12413 Zener Limiter significantly more useful across the stereo mix buss and in mastering applications.

The Zener Limiter requires the Chandler PSU-1 power supply. Pricing here reflects the inclusion of the PSU-1.
