Know before you buy
The ngLeveler connects to your computer via USB or Ethernet and uses a dedicated plugin (VST2, VST3, AU, or AAX) to act as a bridge. This allows you to control the analog faders, mutes, and solos directly from your DAW session, ensuring your settings are saved and recalled automatically.
Yes, the unit is fully compatible with HUI-protocol controllers. This allows you to map the analog faders to your physical mixing console or control surface for a more tactile, hands-on mixing experience.
The ngLeveler features a proprietary analog saturation circuit designed to add harmonic richness and presence to your tracks. It is intended to provide a subtle, musical warmth that helps digital signals sit better in a mix without introducing unwanted noise.
Yes, the ngLeveler uses DB-25 connectors for all 16 analog inputs and outputs. You will need to ensure you have the appropriate DB-25 to XLR or TRS breakout cables to connect the unit to your audio interface or patchbay.
With +24dBu of headroom and a THD+N rating of less than 0.01%, the ngLeveler is designed to maintain high signal integrity. It provides a clean, professional-grade path that preserves the dynamics of your audio while allowing for precise level management.
While the ngLeveler is primarily designed for studio recording and mixing workflows, its robust analog design and DAW integration make it a powerful tool for any environment where precise, recallable analog level control is required. However, it is optimized for integration with DAW-based automation rather than real-time live performance mixing.
