DESCRIPTION The MDS-2 is a dual mono, linkable, high frequency limiter. It is housed in a 1U 19" rack mount alloy case. It is primarily intended for use as a de-esser, reducing unattractive high frequencies, with minimum coloration and loss of clarity.

This is normally the case when de-essing vocals. Switching to M-S will reduce HF limiting from ‘stereo’ signals whilst retaining the limiting on centre signals. The M-S mode does not affect the actual audio path! MASELEC MDS-2 High Frequency Limiter Page 3 of 6...

Changing the setup for Low Levels In recording and mixing the levels can be too low for the MDS-2 to fully change high frequencies. A switch located inside the unit adds +14dB gain in the side chains for increased sensitivity.
