E-LUX

E-LUX is a premium optical compressor designed to infuse your vocals and instruments with the "expensive" sound of high-end tube equipment.

Premium Tube-Based Optical Compression

The source unit is renowned for the use of 5751 and 6922 dual triode vacuum tubes. It offers Compression (3:1) and Limit (10:1) modes with sidechain (80Hz High Pass), and also includes an "Overdrive" mode that pushes the Iron Transformers.

Features & Controls

• Reduction: This control increases the input gain into the compression model and you get compression + non linearities such as saturation of the model.
• Outtrim: This control lets you trim the output gain after the compression model in the chain.
• Limit: When in the on position the compressor becomes a limiter with high ratio, just like the original hardware.
• AutoGain: This button when enabled does some gain compensation for the compression applied.
• Overdrive: This button enables hard driven captured models where you can hear more music saturation, but never too much.
• HpSc: This enables the models in Sidechain mode, where the low frequency content of the input signal does not affect the compression too much. It's great on a mix, drums or bass.
