Flexible, intuitive real-time handling and ""snapshot"" automation escort you from take-off to landing on your magical mastering tour. Compliments of BEHRINGER.

No side effects - just punch, punch and more punch

The ULTRA-DYNE PRO's 6 multiband algorithms eliminate all undesirable effects. Intermodulation and pumping are history. Unlimited dynamic control guarantees pure pleasure.

Get set for an audio experience: BEHRINGER«'s program-adaptive exciter

Use our multiband exciter to generate sparkling harmonics, setting the ratio of even to odd harmonics to suit your tastes. Give voices a silky smoothness or add a powerful kick to a bass drum.

ULTRAMIZER«: your faithful friend on stage and elsewhere

The ULTRAMIZER function is an invaluable aid in determining the correct parameter settings. Output levels and signal density are optimized automatically, considerably increasing the subjective loudness. The desired amounts of compression and maximization can be set with two parameters. All remaining parameters are automatically set according to the program material. The ULTRAMIZER function is yet another indispensable BEHRINGER feature for your productions, particularly for radio and TV broadcasts.

VIRTUOSO«: mastering magic

You won't believe your ears! Your recordings can now stand up to any comparison to top CD productions. The magic word for the technical realization of this everyday dream is VIRTUOSO: a synonym for powerful, dynamic compression. So you don't believe in magic? Just sit back and let our wizard, the VIRTUOSO, select the correct settings for you and your productions for all six bands. Abracadabra û ultimate loudness! BEHRINGER's VIRTUOSO optimizes these settings automatically after a single analysis of the most critical passages of your program material.


Level and gain reduction meter for all 6 bands

Look Ahead: our crystal ball

Two megabyte of delay memory permits the delay of individual frequency bands by up to 600 msec. This permits the algorithms of the BEHRINGER ULTRA-DYNE PRO, such as noise gates, compressors and peak limiters, to ""anticipate"" and prepare for what's ahead.

The ultimate extras

Free PC software for BEHRINGER's future-oriented, extras-loaded ULTRA-DYNE PRO operating system will soon be available, allowing remote control of the unit from a PC, including convenient onscreen editing of all parameters.
