elysia: xpressor 500 meteor

High-end studio processor manufacturer elysia has unveiled its new xpressor 500 meteor - a new version of its best-selling xpressor 500 compressor. The module is incredibly exclusive as it is limited to only 100 modules worldwide. A quick look at the compressor will make you understand why.

The appearance is is reminiscent of metallic meteorites found in the greatest natural science museums all over the world. They claim it uses a 'special aluminium' that is cut from big slices using gigantic buzz saws, and the artwork on the panel is burned into the panel using a special MOPA laser. As someone with a masters in mechanical engineering, this lack of detail and use of buzz-words makes me cringe a little bit, but I understand that if they explained everything most people would simply not care. Either way, it looks stunning.

It will be available as of November 1st for $975 from many dealers across the world, go to elysia's website to find a local dealer. The circuitry is the same as the xpressor 500, which you can hear in action here:
