The Dangerous Liaison is a revolutionary programmable analogue patchbay that brings the convenience and speed of digital recall to your outboard gear. Hand-built in the USA using audiophile-grade components and Chris Muth’s renowned circuit design, the Dangerous Liaison allows instant recall of complex routing chains with six stereo insert loops, true hard-bypass switching, and two fully independent stereo busses.
Flip functions let you re-order insert pairs on the fly, while the built-in parallel processing loop allows for zero-latency blending of processed and dry signals. Each buss supports both pre- and post-insert monitoring, with four monitor outputs providing fast A/B comparisons, essential for critical decisions based on short-term auditory memory. The Dangerous Liaison includes four onboard memory slots for storing patches, letting you recall setups instantly for tracking, mixing, or mastering without physical repatching or recall sheets.
With its mastering-grade transparency, latency-free switching, and seamless integration with the Dangerous Master or another Dangerous Liaison unit, this device transforms how analogue workflows operate in modern studios.
