This mint condition product includes the original box, manual, and all original accessories.

Manley Labs CORE, an analog channel strip, which they describe as an innovative and affordable mic preamplifier, compressor, equalizer, and limiter combo-unit that combines the greatest hits of the Manley product line with fresh technology. T. Manley believes that the intuitive design incorporates musical and forgiving circuitry that allows the user to concentrate on performance rather than be lost in a sea of knobs. No other channel strip offers higher headroom or higher end sound than the CORE, which is, like all Manley products, handcrafted in Southern California.
