We’re giving away a fabulous 500-series modular bundle from Cranborne Audio worth £3000$3000! Enter today to be in with a chance to win!
Since their founding in 2018, Cranborne Audio have always innovated. Their debut product, the Camden 500 module, brought esoteric preamp quality to the masses, while their 500R8 rack offered unprecedented integration between DAW and hardware.
The Prize
For this month’s exclusive SOS competition, we’ve teamed up with Cranborne Audio to offer you the chance to win a 500R8 of your own, plus two of the company’s renowned 500‑series modules.
Providing space for up to eight 500-series processors, the 500R8 also includes a 28-in/30-out audio interface, allowing unprecedented flexibility in terms of routing your digital audio out to your analogue processing modules. It also boasts comprehensive monitor control, two independent headphone outputs, an aux bus, digital expandability via ADAT, and compatibility with Cranborne Audio’s CAST analogue-over-Cat5 snake system. In short, it can act as the centrepiece of any studio, allowing you to get the most out of both digital and analogue equipment.
The lucky winner will also receive one of Cranborne Audio’s outstanding Brick Lane 500 compressors. Boasting unprecedented flexibility thanks to its PWM topology, the Brick Lane 500 can give you the sound of classic optical, valve and FET compressors — or precise, transparent, lightning‑fast gain reduction when you need it.
Finally, this mouth-watering bundle also includes the Carnaby 500: a ‘harmonic equaliser’ that takes an entirely new approach to frequency balancing, while still maintaining familiar operation.
