- Analog modeled release behavior.
- Wet/Dry mix for easy parallel compression.
- Unique transient pass-through control.
- Exclusive BPM-sync release function.
- Analog character modes.
- Output limiter/clipper modes.
- External sidechain support.
- BPM Readout.
Controls:
- Threshold - 0 to -48 dB.
- Ratio - 1 to 50.
- Punch – 0 to 30.
- Attack - 0.5 to 100 ms.
- Release - 3 to 3000 ms | 1/64T to 2 Bar.
- Mix - (Dry/Wet) 0 to 100.
- Sync - BPM/Host/MS.
- Analog - Off, Modes 1 to 4.
- Limiter - On/Off.
- Output - +/- 18 dB.
- Meter Mode - In\GR\Out, 0 to -48 dB dBFS.
Discussion
rosko12 Ok here's my ten cents - a) the output comes after the dry/wet mix which isn't as useful for doing pll comp (I don't think anyway); b) the GR shows total attenuation even in pll mode which is not the normal but ok you can get used to it; c) the limiter switch doesn't work!!!, ie it's always on (but maybe that's just the version I tried out); d) nowhere does it explain what "punch" actually does, it seems to mix in a few milliseconds of dry signal but it would be nice if it told us more ie in the pdf; e) the BPM release thing is great for dance music don't know why I haven't seen that done before; f) GUI is better than most. :-)
