- Today we review the Stam Audio 609 MkII Compressor/Limiter, a faithful recreation of the legendary 33609 Diode Bridge compressor limiter from the 70's.
The audio circuit is a full Class AB and it augments the usual controls with a Dry/Wet Knob for parallel compression and a switch to toggle between the Metal knobs (vintage) and the more modern revisions.
We run program materials through the unit and discuss the History and Circuit design of this analogue beast.

Fantastic Video. History, Technology and Audio. I enjoyed listening.

Extremely well presented thankyou 🐃
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a fantastic, informative video! Thank you Red Stone Productions.
Thank you for making these awesome videos!
Another brilliant piece of gear from Joshua Stam and co. If the funds timing was right, I'd be all in...
Nice review.
Glad you enjoyed it. Please think about subscribing to the channel. It means a lot to us.
I remember you from one of my old streams this is some pretty good info
This intro music going in my mind all day...😅
INCREDBILE video wow
Thank you so much man!
Nice video! I really respect Stam’s innovative spirit and his amazing work. I really love the bottom end with that beautiful roundness of the vintage mode.
This to me is seems like a wonderful tracking compressor for certain types of vocals, acoustic instruments such as guitar and other string instruments, and nice for rounded, saturated bass.
Since I can only afford one piece of hardware for compression, I am really, really interested in the SA4000 mkIII. I think it would sound really nice with the 2520 mod, but I can’t find any demos. If you have access to any of those models, it would be really interesting to hear each version: Carnhill mod, 2520 mod, and the Fairchild mod.
You just gave me a great idea for a video! Comparing all 4 (Standard, API, Neve and Fairchild MOD). I'll make it happen

Nice review. Been interested in adding a diode bridge comp to the mastering chain. The 609mkII is definitely on the list along with the Buzz Audio DBC-M and IGS V8.
Good choice! Please think about subscribing to the channel. It would mean a lot to us!
I own the IGS V8 and it is a beautiful compressor indeed. It "handles" differently than a 33609 with its threshold, attack, and delay settings, but it sounds really good.
do you think for mastering is necessary that Side chain or HPF that have some more new compresor so it don't react so much to low frequencies. or no. or just a slow attack can do the trick ?????
It depends man, having the option is always welcome especially when compressing fast and substantially. Honestly for the 609MKII I did not feel the need for it (given the type of compression and all). I hope this helps!
Helps a lot… thanks
What desk is that?
Ssl X-Desk
@@RedStoneProductions I meant the desk the racks all your gear
Curuxa Customs from Spain.
So this version has side chain?
Yes like every other compressor, this version has Side Chain.
I’m asking about a side chain filter like in the sucessor or an input.
No external side chain input or filters
