Three functions for the processing unit: De-esser, compressor and peak limiter. XLR connectors only. Behind the DPR you have 2 "switches" for adjusting the response of the peak limiter FAST or SLOW and a third "switch" LINK ensuring the coupling of the 2 channels to stabilize the stereo image without phase shifts (negative) if you use it well.
2 sets of twelve screw terminals have the particularity to provide other configurations than those offered directly in front, such as reverse phase, the LF re-emphasis, HF re-emphasis and control of the filter. They also provide access to various sections of the device and used to connect filters in the chain of command of the gain as a parametric eq for example. You can also compress the more severe, compressing the presence of severe acute or reverse, order expansion are also possible by reversing the direction of the control voltage applied to the FFA board. You also have, by one of the terminals, the ability to connect several machines together .. But beware, their settings will be identical.
An important thing for the user link, you can also disconnect the controls half of the unit for control by a single channel.
UTILIZATION
This compressor is very simple to use, but for full use of it, he must read the manual (very well done) before use .. This is one of the most complete compressor market ..
SOUND QUALITY
The DPR 402 is still a real gem when subjected to a signal, its effectiveness is remarkable! The sound is always soft and natural. Whatever the compressor settings, compression remains stable, no pumping (except the desire of course).
The de-esser is remarkably efficient, difficult to hang in sound with fine tuning of the de-esser, for my part, I think it's an almost ideal tools in difficult conditions, mainly due to switching wide and LF which provides a rigorous selection of filters de-esser.
For limiting ridge, no problem with BSS, it compresses and limits its own peaks even going to be foamed which deserves to be.
OVERALL OPINION
I will not dwell, I never went out without my DPR 402!
