This is a high-quality compressor that offers performance that is suitable for studio and post-production use, yet is packaged in a compact format that can be used live. The Platform allows for precise control of your instrument's dynamics, and in addition to controls for volume, attack, release, sustain, etc., it also features a mode switch button (compressor/limiter) and a knee switch button (soft/hard). The overdrive function with dedicated volume, tone and drive controls allows for even greater sonic versatility. The swell function is controlled using a dedicated knob, and the more you turn it clockwise, the more gradual the volume change. Platform is fully stereo, supporting mono in/mono out, mono in/stereo out, and stereo in/stereo out. It also features a three-color LED indicator that acts like a VU meter, allowing you to check the amount of gain reduction in real time. - A studio-quality compressor/limiter that allows you to accurately control dynamics regardless of the instrument or situation. - In addition to controls for volume, attack, release, sustain, etc., it is equipped with a mode switch button (compressor/limiter) and a knee switch button (soft/hard). - Equipped with an overdrive that can be turned on/off with a foot switch. Used in conjunction with the compressor, it creates a saturated, smooth sound. - Use the Swell control to recreate fade-in effects, violin playing, reverse effects, and more. Stereo specification. Supports mono in/mono out, mono in/stereo out, and stereo in/stereo out. - Equipped with a three-color LED indicator, allowing you to check the amount of gain reduction in real time. Stereo buffered bypass design prevents signal degradation even when multiple effects units or long cables are connected. - EHX9.6DC-200mA adapter included
