Intelligent Design
A semi-automatic mastering device with a three-band compressor, mid/side capabilities, and transparent filters inside, the S73 makes the choices a mastering engineer would, so it always sounds great.
Minimum Tweaking
Simply use the Style parameter to switch between ready made mastering processing techniques, quickly finding the sound that suits your mix.
Set and Forget
The S73 makes your mixes brighter, louder, wider – whatever you want it to be – with ease. Just set it and forget it, safe in the knowledge you’ve supercharged your mix.
Clarity and defintion
Under the hood, the S73 is based on technology created by Drawmer for the 1973 Three Band FET Stereo Compressor. This is an award winning multi-band analog compressor design famous for its precision and flexibility. But as with all multi-band compressors it takes care and experience to find the sweetest of sweet spots.
With the S73 we’ve found them for you, and the sound design behind each Style represents an expert mastering engineer’s skill and taste. You’ll have no trouble getting the best out of Drawmer with this special little unit.
Close to the original
Softube has carefully modeled all the characteristics of the original analog hardware at component level, so what you hear in the S73 is truly the real thing in action.
“I think they’ve nailed it,” says Kieron Clough, Products Manager at Drawmer. “Ivor [Drawmer] thinks they’ve nailed it as well. It’s fantastic!”
The S73 is the way to get top-of-the-line analog hardware on your mastering bus without fear of choice paralysis or losing yourself in the details. It’s called the Intelligent Master Processor because it makes the tough decisions for you, leaving you free to listen to the effect.
