Tired of moving around all those patch cables and wires? Well with the Dangerous Music LIAISON you don't need to worry about that anymore. LIAISON is an insert box without the cables and patching, letting you instantly insert your outboard gear and audition hardware with the touch of a button. Looking to quickly compare two analogue EQs in the chain? Simply press a button and you can punch your EQs in and out, allowing for gapless A/B comparisons. You can also flip the signal chain for trying out different combinations, answering that old age question, should the compressor or EQ come first? The LIAISON lets you become more experimental and ready to try new things out without stopping your creative flow and changing cables, simply push a button. You can also store and recall complex analogue patches that include up to six stereo or mono analogue paths. With a latency-free parallel buss, you can blend your processed and unprocessed signal easily. Speed up your workflow without no time-confusing patching with the LIAISON and experience the ease and speed of digital plug-ins with your analogue rig.
The LIAISON has 4 memories that you can store your favourite presets with, allowing you to quickly add your processing chain to a track. There is also a built-in compare function. For example, if you alter a preset by adding another insert, you can then quickly switch between your preset and the altered version, allowing you to make quick, comparative judgments. Additionally, you can also switch quickly between your different presets, to find the one that's going to make your mix shine.
The LIAISON is built around six high-grade stereo insert loops, which allow you to integrate your analogue outboard gear. These can be punched in and flipped instantly with the touch of a button. Five inserts are on the back for your main gear, then a sixth one is on the front, allowing you to use a friends' external gear to instantly add into your track, mix or master. Two main stereo busses allow you to route different analogue gear chains simultaneously. This allows you to add maybe some EQ to your bass on bus A, then have some compression added to your drums on bus B. The six inserts can be shared between the two buses, so you can instantly add in some processing on any bus for even greater versatility. You can assign any insert to either of the two busses, but not at the same time.
The LIAISON lets you send any combination of gear to its onboard parallel processing loop for latency-free blending of unprocessed and processed signals. The parallel processing loop buttons remove the inserts from bus B and sends them to the parallel processing loop. Instantly switch between parallel patches and in-series processing with the push of a button, then simply blend to taste. There's also a polarity reverse button to sort out any phase issues.
As with all Dangerous Music equipment, the LIAISON is constructed with only professional-grade components throughout the analogue relay switching system, meaning you get true bypass switching and unmatched transparency. True hardwire bypass relays remove any gear entirely from your signal path, so you can compare in confidence without colouration, latency or disruptive noises.
