AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
The Finalizer 96K legendary hardware, originally released in the late 1990s/early 2000s, was designed as a true integrated digital mastering console. It combines in a single unit equalization, three-band dynamics processing, limiter, expander, normalization, stereo image processing, and sample rate conversion.
It is a particularly interesting device for mastering, mixing, and finalizing recordings, but also for a studio setup that combines analog and digital equipment.
It delivers real presence, punch (notably on kick drums), and thickness to electronic music or tracks that are a little too timid.
All settings can be stored in memory and recalled via MIDI messages.
The TC Electronic Finalizer 96K remains an interesting machine today for anyone who wants to work with a standalone hardware mastering processor, not relying exclusively on plug-ins.
Its large display, high-resolution bar graphs, and front-panel controls allow immediate visualization of levels and gain reductions and enable working directly on the unit.
Main features
- Processing up to 24-bit / 96 kHz
- 24-bit A/N and N/A converters
- 3-band dynamics processing
- Multiband compressor
- Multiband limiter
- Multiband expander
- 5-band parametric equalizer
- Dynamic equalizer / De-Esser
- Normalize with Soft Clipping
- Spectral Stereo Image: stereo image adjustment independently on three bands
- M/S encoder/decoder (Mid/Side)
- Digital Radiance Generator, designed to reproduce an analog-style harmonic coloration
- Ability to insert an external analog processor into the processing chain
- Real-time sample rate conversion
- Wizard function facilitating automatic setup of processing
- Phase analyzer, Peak Hold Meter and calibration signal generator
- Factory presets and 128 user memories.
Analog inputs and outputs on balanced XLR, with a maximum level of +22 dBu.
For digital: AES/EBU on XLR, S/PDIF coaxial RCA, S/PDIF optical Toslink and ADAT Lightpipe, with Word Clock input. The unit also features MIDI In/Out/Thru and a PCMCIA slot for saving/exchanging settings.
The Finalizer 96K supports sample rates of 32, 44.1, 48, 88.2 and 96 kHz and allows sample rate conversion. In 96 kHz operation, its analog frequency response extends to about 45 kHz (-3 dB).
