M16 16-channel mic pre
Late last year I re-visited the design of the M16.... The power supply has always been a problem in manufacture and so I introduced a re-design so that the stabilised power supplies were inside the main unit, just leaving the transformer external. This now works well and a couple of tiny changes in the circuitry mean that the mic amps are even better at rejecting noise.
There are M16s in stock now!
P38
We have now ceased production of the P38 original dark blue version.
P38EX
This has been the most successful equipment ever; (more successful even than the old SC2!) it was a 'best kept secret' for a while, but now it really is in demand, and loved by many producers. .... these compressors are being used everywhere! I have batches being made all the time, they are now on about 10 day delivery backlog; but we are making them as fast as we can...... but I still like to test and listen to every one that we make.
P38V7
These are fully proven and in production now.... it's sounding awesome! It's very much like the days when I was trying out the first JoeMeek optical compressors --- and wondering why anyone would ever use anything else. It's true that there are clever engineers who can make digital equipment do exactly what you specify..... but the problem is, no-one knows how to specify 'punchy, warm, deep and full'!!
P110
One new one in stock; it's a bit of a special, with an ultra low-noise front end. I'm using it myself at the moment, but it's there for someone who's looking.......!

BARGAINS, NEW and GOOD USED EQUIPMENT UPDATED 13th February 2012
The new version 2 of the M16 has been testing out well.... Have just sold the first of the new version; the changes were more to do with manufacture than performance.... The power supply unit was always difficult to make, now the active electronics are inside the actual mixer which is an improvement.
Demand for compressors since Christmas has been good, we now have some P38EX in stock once again.
I have now sold out of 'beta prototype' P38V8 'Legacy' compressors..... There were six of them in all, and they were immediately snapped up and are now working in studios around the world, production ones are available; the 'Legacy' compressors are a very economical buy at around £750.
The P38V7 is a reall 'rock and roll' compressor..... but please email because the stock position really does change daily. (For a demo of 'heavy compression' using the V7, please email me.)
I have another P4.... this is a really good dual mic amp/limiter for very little money..... and also one only perfect JoeMeek MQ3; this was the last UK version of the VC3 half-rack mic amp/compressor/EQ, a very under-rated piece of gear that has recorded punchy voice-overs on many big adverts.
