[Musikmesse] Klark Teknik DN540

Klark Teknik has launched the DN540 Creative Quad Compressor, one of two new products in a brand new series - The DN540 has four channels of compression into a 1U chassis.

Leading features of the KT DN540 include:
  • Quad channel compressor
  • Ease of use, requiring minimum set up to produce excellent results
  • “Harmonic Enhancement” presence control to correct loss of detail and intelligibility during compression without increasing noise or likelihood of feedback
  • Sonic design which has been “tuned by ear” to produce extremely transparent compression
  • Advanced envelope generator with manual controls for creative dynamic effects
  • Intuitive controls for all functions contributing to output levels
  • Easily identifiable bypass, solo and other major switches, with status LEDs
  • Channel linking with true power summing to provide true threshold setting for stereo material
  • External sidechain inputs
  • 1U chassis
  • Balanced inputs and outputs
  • Auto switching power supply

Anticipated applications of the new KT DN540 include, according to Klark:
  • Protecting signal paths from amplitude overload
  • Improving the apparent power of signals when an artists’ performance is a little too dynamic
  • Maintaining a stable signal level to help an instrument sit within a mix
  • Changing the percussive timbre of an instrument to enhance impact
  • Compressing a mix so that it maintains a stable signal level (typically to make it sound louder)
  • Changing the percussive timbre of a mix to make it sound fuller and to enhance impact
  • Frequency conscious compression to remove unwanted sibilance or undesired tonal artefacts via external sidechain
