SQUEEZE AND UNFOLD
The VCE-118 is a unique dynamics tool based on the breakthroughs that occurred in the advent of VCA technology in the early Seventies. Its reputation as a secret weapon lies in its special ratio implementation, which enables both compression and expansion, combined with its special linear mode as a powerful fuel for bending dynamics as a creative effect.
REGULAR VS. LINEAR
The central knob offers compression ratios between 1:1 and oo:1 or expansion between 1:1 and 1:2, while the intensity of the effect can be tweaked with the Threshold control. The Mode button switches from regular gain reduction or expansion, where only levels above the threshold are processed, to linear operation, which affects the full level range above and below the threshold.
DIVERSE DUTIES
Naturally, the VCE-118 provides the ultimate punchy compression known from early VCA compressor flagships like the famous 160. But it doesn't stop there, since its expanded dynamic range surprises with intriguing effects reminding of gates and transient shapers. Linear mode can take this even further with sonic escapades like heavily pumping beats or dead silent ambience.
DYNAMICS MONSTER
The VCE-118 is nothing short of a giant in disguise. It can slam your drums to oblivion and in the next second, it becomes a great punch enhancer if used sparingly in parallel. Linear mode is such an advantage when you're looking for unusual, extreme dynamics effects, applicable in various doses composed with the ever-crucial mix knob. Compress... expand... enhance.
