Brand New. Handsome Audio Zulu 500 Series Edition!. The Worlds First and Best Passive Analog Tape Simulator.

Find out what your digital recordings have been missing! Handsome Audio Zulu 500 Series Edition. This configuration allows you increased flexibility to place Zulu in numerous compatible 500 series racks, suitable for tracking room usage to control rooms with racked 500 series chassis.

Zulu features 4 tape formulas, 3 tape machine types, an upgraded internal Bias circuit that controls frequency-based compression and saturation plus a Bias B button for 2 ranges of upper mids and highs, an updated Enhance control (with expanded range of flexibility and the distinct vibe of the original) that adds dry signal (with boosted upper mids and highs) back to the circuit in parallel and a modified 5 position machine Headroom control that controls the operating point before saturation, compression and tone shaping occur. Plus (you asked for it!) a new hardware bypass! For those of you who don't own patchbays or simply wish to bypass Zulu, you can now take it out of the signal path with ease!

Zulu 500 is fully passive and does not require an external power supply or phantom power to function. Simply connect it to a signal source (converters, mixer, microphone preamp, compressor) and drive the input with level! Amazing tape tones, compression and authentic character that offers the classic palette to a new generation of users and professionals.

Zulu 500 also features a revolutionary solution to install 500 series units - the Brass Knuckle platform. Developed by Langston Masingale, the brass knuckle allows the EDAC connection to live on a flexible ribbon cable, making installation for 500 series units completely independent from the installation of the actual module itself. The installation process for Zulu 500 is short, confident, and easy.

All front panel controls are spring-loaded rotary switches for excellent recall. All units are mono. Channels are precision-matched.

Zulu 500 includes a custom metal Zulu lapel pin, a pair of custom Handsome Audio gold thumbscrews (for 500 series mounting) and a custom Handsome Audio Mousepad done up as a reel of tape.

User's Manuals are available on the Handsome Audio Website under Handsome Audio Manuals.

NOTE: 500 series enclosure is not included! This is only for the purchase of one single Zulu 500 series unit.
