Stage Line MCL-204

2-channel compressor/limiter

For protecting vocal microphones or dynamically played instruments against overload for equalizing level fluctuations for emphasising a signal and for transferring analogue recordings onto digital sound carriers (volume maximisation due to dynamic compression).

For each channel:
• 8-step LED level display switchable to input signal or output signal
• 12-step LED attenuation display
• LED indicators for a perfect adjustment of the threshold values for expander/gate compressor and limiter
• Servo-balanced inputs and outputs
• Bypass switch (hard bypass)
• Switch for hard or soft compression (soft knee)
• Threshold control and rate control for expander/gate
• Threshold ratio attack release and output level controls for compressor
• Automatic mode attack/release for compressor
• Side chain mode for controlling the compressor via an additional external audio signal with monitor function and low cut filter can be switched on additionally
• Threshold control for limiter
• Selector switch +4 dBu/-10 dBv for internal level adjustments
