Stereo Leisure Comp / Dual Leisure Comp

The immaculate tube signal path in Teletronix's LA-2A Levelling Amplifier has left its exceptional clarity, its rich and warm
compression on countless albums of the past decades.
The ultra-smooth optical attenuator is closely modelled in our LA COMPRESSOR. It provides breezing, natural and effort-
lessly musical compression. Inspired by Teletronix LA-2A

Stereo Ultimo Comp / Dual Ultimo Comp

When Urei released the 1176LN Limiting Amplifier in the late 60s, it broke new ground. Field Effect Transistors employed
were just invented and the 1176 was one of the first audio processors to benefit from this new technology.
Our digital reincarnation, ULTIMO COMPRESSOR, is based on the early Rev. E model and authentically captures the smooth
character of the original class-A output stage and its FET's legendary Fast Attack. Inspired by Urei 1176LN.

Dual Enhancer / Stereo Enhancer

The M32's Enhancers are so called 'Psycho EQs' . They can enhance the signal spectrum in bass, midrange and high frequen-
cies, but they differ from traditional EQs. When you need to generate maximum punch, clarity and detail, without turning
up the overall volume, our enhancers are the solution. Inspired by the SPL Vitalizer.
Adjust the BASS, MID and HI GAIN rotary controls to add or reduce content in those spectrums. The BASS and HI
FREQ(uencies) can be specifically selected, while the MID Q (bandwidth) can be adjusted instead. The OUT GAIN rotary
control compensates for changes in level resulting from the effect, and SPREAD (stereo version only) emphasises the
stereo content for a wider mix. Engage the SOLO MODE to isolate only the audio resulting from the effect so you can hear
exactly what you're adding to the mix.

Dual Exciter / Stereo Exciter

Exciters increase presence and intelligibility in live sound applications, and are indispensable for adding clarity, air and
harmonic overtones in the recording studio. This effect is particularly useful for filling out the sound in difficult rooms, and
for producing a more natural live or recorded sound. Inspired by the famous Aphex Aural Exciter.
Set the frequency of the side-chain filter with the TUNE rotary control, and further shape the filter slope with the PEAK
and ZERO FILL controls. Turning the TIMBRE rotary control left of centre adds more odd harmonics, while turning it
right of centre adds more even harmonics. Adjust the harmonic content added to the signal with the HARMONICS rotary
control, and blend in the affected signal with the MIX rotary control. Engage the SOLO MODE to isolate only the audio
resulting from the effect so you can hear exactly what you're adding to the mix.
