«  it works »

VCA is a mono compressor.

The only settings available are the threshold, ratio and output level.
There are two possible compression modes: standard and "overeasy", which correspond to two different slopes of compression ("hard knee" in standard and flat over easy).

We can chain two for stereo processing: both compresence the same way to preserve the stereo image.
There is a sidechain input to trigger the co: pressure instead of the input signal.

UTILIZATION


Compressus simplex. No adjustment of attraque and release, it has a face, and after it more or less compressed.
Well, not quite as it always has the choice to play on the threshold or ratio, which for equivalent gain reduction gives different results.

indicators are very precise levels.
manufacturing quality is good.


SOUND QUALITY


I have not been around that have used the mix, mainly on the low foot, the snare and sometimes vocals.

It does its job, ie it limits the deviations of dynamic, and from 8-10 db reduction begins to seriously shape the sound in wrestling before. Passes attacks and thick in some way. Attention begins to mitigate the grave when they slap him in it.

I'd like to test it on a stereo modulation (piano sisi!, Overheads).


OVERALL OPINION


This is not the machine to do everything. The advantage is that it is fixed quickly, if it does not work as they want in two minutes, do not insist. And if it works right away.

A machine with a certain personality. it's finally nice to have.
