Very low phase shift and harmonic distortion (unless pushed hard).

Flat frequency response over full audio range and beyond. Side chain filters to enable compression of all frequencies except bass. Subtle control with 'soft knee' compression more compression effects when pushed hard. All valve signal path and side chain, point to point hand wired in England. A Standby switch is introduced to prolong valve and component life and this has had an unexpected effect, see.*. In stereo mastering, with the link switch in, there are effectively 5 frequency options as the compressor side chain will work at the average of the switch positions. Side Chain Bass Cut switches, which have become an essential mastering tool have been retained. Omeg indented pots are used for the Output Level for fine control. The new Mastering Plus is a much upgraded version employing precision Elma switches for the Gain and Threshold and Alpha switches for Attack and Release. The Master Phoenix is in use in many studios and mastering suites around the world, and we do know that one of its users, Ray Staff of AIR London Studios won the MPG award for Best Mastering Engineer in 2009. 
This earlier version has 6dB lower gain compared to the standard Phoenix. The compression curve of the mastering Phoenix is slightly gentler than that of the standard one, but it does have a more "positive" effect. This was more recall-able with indented pots and slightly different power supply and metering circuit, in which trimming the meter alters the current through the compression valve so compensating for valve ageing. After requests from mastering engineers the Master Phoenix was introduced in October 2006. This is the latest development in the evolution of the classic Phoenix compressor, first introduced in 1998.
