Half rack mono compressor/limiter, using electro-optical attenuation. Can be linked with another for stereo operation. Adjustable threshold and ratios, attack/release settings are dependent on the waveform and the amount of gain reduction. Designed to respond to RMS measurement of signal levels, arguably the least intrusive method of automatic volume control. This makes it more 'musical' than units designed primarily to protect against overloads. Black faced use 846 op amps, silver faced use 4136 op amps. Small, unfussy and smooth.
