By combining flexible compression with transformer-based transient shaping, it helps round off peaks, add density, and create a thicker, more integrated sound reminiscent of analog tape-style behavior.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eTegeler Audio Magnetismus 2 Competitive Differences\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCombines a stereo VCA compressor with a transformer-based transient shaper in one 2U rackmount unit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOffers three Flux Modes for different transient character, plus adjustable intensity and output transformer coloration for mix glue or creative sound design\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch2\u003eTegeler Audio Magnetismus 2 Description\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eTegeler Audio Magnetismus 2\u003c\/strong\u003e is designed for engineers and producers who want more than standard compression. Its signal path starts with a versatile VCA compressor that can control peaks, tighten dynamics, and add cohesion to stereo material without flattening the life out of a performance. This makes it well suited for drum buses, synthesizers, acoustic guitars, subgroup work, and full mix processing.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAfter compression, the transient shaper adds a distinct character by rounding transients rather than simply turning them up or down. This gives signals a smoother, thicker response that can help them sit more naturally in a mix. The three selectable Flux Modes, Eisen, Kobalt, and Nickel, process the signal through different transformer paths to create different transient responses and analog-style saturation behavior.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Intensity control allows precise shaping of how much the transient stage affects the source, while the output transformer adds additional density and punch. With subtle settings, the unit can act as a mix glue processor or mastering compressor. With more aggressive settings, it can also be used creatively for crushed drums, heavily reshaped transients, and more experimental sound design.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIts stereo layout, stepped potentiometers, balanced XLR connectivity, illuminated meters, and internal power supply make the Magnetismus 2 a practical hardware processor for modern studio and hybrid analog workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMagnetismus 2 Features\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStereo transient shaper and VCA compressor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDesigned for drums, synthesizers, acoustic guitars, buses, and mastering use\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVCA compressor with adjustable threshold and ratio\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWide range of adjustable timing controls\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDownstream transient shaper for rounding transients\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eThree Flux Modes: Eisen, Kobalt, and Nickel\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdjustable level and intensity of transient processing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTransformer-balanced XLR output\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBalanced XLR input\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eLED gain reduction meter\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIlluminated VU meter for working point control\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAdjustable output level\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eStepped potentiometers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eBypass switch\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInternal power supply\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMagnetismus 2 Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eProduct Type: Transient Shaper and VCA Compressor\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eConfiguration: Stereo Unit\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFrequency Response: 20 Hz to 22 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaximum Input Level: +20 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInput Impedance: 2.4 kOhms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance: \u0026lt; 600 Ohms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaximum Output Level: +24 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDynamic Range: 95 dB\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eInput: Balanced XLR\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutput: Transformer Balanced XLR\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eVoltage: 110 to 240 V~, 50 to 60 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eFuse: 500 mA Slow-Blow\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMaximum Power Consumption: \u0026lt; 25 W\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eRack Size: 2U\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDimensions: 19 x 9.84 x 3.47 in (483 x 250 x 88.1 mm)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eWhat's In The Box\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eTegeler Audio Magnetismus 2\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Tegeler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52093293527322,"sku":"117118","price":1899.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0894\/2714\/9082\/files\/tegeler-audio-magnetismus-2--transient-shaper-and-vca-compressor--stereo-bus-and-creative-dynamics-processor_54a3690d-5cbb-49dd-a20c-950e59ce3472.webp?v=1776443284","url":"https:\/\/squarecable.com\/products\/tegeler-audio-magnetismus-2-transient-shaper-and-vca-compressor-stereo-bus-and-creative-dynamics-processor","provider":"SquareCable","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
