Tegeler Audio CREME RC

Bus Compressor and Mastering Equalizer

Tegeler Audio CREME RC is a stereo bus compressor and passive mastering equalizer designed for professional studio applications. It combines a Pultec-inspired EQ section with a high-end compressor, giving engineers a hardware processor that can add low-end weight, top-end clarity, and polished dynamic control to stereo mixes and mastering chains.

Tegeler Audio CREME RC Competitive Differences

• Combines passive EQ and stereo bus compression in one 4U rackmount unit with remote controllable operation via plug-in
• Offers side-chain low-cut filtering, stepped attack and release controls, and LAN or Wi-Fi remote workflow support for modern studio integration

Tegeler Audio CREME RC Description

The Tegeler Audio CREME RC is designed for engineers who want classic analog tone shaping and bus compression with the added convenience of remote control. Its passive EQ is voiced for broad, musical enhancement, making it ideal for subtle bass lift and treble sparkle on mix buses, stereo masters, and subgroup processing.

The compressor section focuses on the most commonly used studio settings for mix glue and mastering control. Attack times of 0.1, 0.3, 1, 3, 10, and 30 ms, release settings of 100, 300, and 600 ms up to 1.2 seconds, and auto ratio options of 1.5, 2, 4, and 10 provide flexible dynamics control for a wide range of material.

A side-chain low-cut filter helps reduce how strongly low frequencies trigger compression, which is especially useful for maintaining a stable low end on full mixes. This allows the unit to control dynamics smoothly without unwanted pumping from bass-heavy content, while still preserving punch and musicality.

What sets the RC version apart is its remote controllable workflow via plug-in, with support for LAN or Wi-Fi operation and mobile control through the Creme RC app for iOS and Android. Combined with balanced XLR inputs and outputs, a needle-style dB meter, and an internal transformer power supply, it fits easily into modern hybrid studio and mastering setups.
