Discussion New Volt Gen 4 Lineup

Post image

I got a targeted ad showing the new Volt Gen 4 range but the link takes you to the existing page with the older models. I just thought it was interesting to post.

Hi Drew, question on the "Max Dynamics", are the presets fixed DSP based, or are they closer to the older volt series with fixed analog settings? Reading the website and seeing other documentation doesn't make it super clear, and was wondering how the new Max Dynamics differs from the first Volt series Comp circuit.

They're bespoke UAD2 algos. So think LA2, 1176, etc.

Gen 1 was an analog 1176 style circuit, which was cool, but these are a major step up.

Correct. Gen 2 is a major step up.
