Description

The SPLICE-500 MKII's unique circuitry mode switching allows the user to configure the input & output audio path circuitry between classic Blackface and Blue Stripe modes, or mix and match the two to create completely new sounds, unique to the SPLICE-500 MKII.

Size doesn't matter. The Splice-500 packs all of the sound and functionality of the acclaimed Splice MKII rack into a single 500 series module. Faithfully recreating the circuitry and sound of not one, but two classic FET compressors, the Splice-500's unique mode switching allows the user to switch between the classic Blackface or vintage Bluestripe circuits at the push of a button. In addition, the Splice-500 can also mix and match the two for entirely new sounds that can only be found with the Splice (i.e. Blue Input Circuitry + Black Output Circuitry for "Blueface" mode or Black Input Circuitry + Blue Output Circuitry for "Blackstripe" mode.

All units are made in the USA to an exceptional level of craft and workmanship.

Features

Four Compressor circuits in one box

Input Circuit Black + Output Circuit Black = "Classic Blackface Mode"

Input Blue + Output Blue = "Classic Bluestripe Mode"

Input Blue + Output Black = "Blueface Mode" (Unique to the Splice)

Input Black + Output Blue = "Blackstripe Mode" (Unique to the Splice)
