Product Information The 50th anniversary Model 2830*Au Omnipressor® is a professional-quality dynamic modifier, combining the functions of an analog compressor, expander, noise gate, and limiter in one convenient package. Its dynamic reversal feature makes high-level input signals lower than corresponding low-level inputs. Musically, this reverses the attack-decay envelope of plucked strings, drums, and similar instruments and gives the effect of “talking backward” when applied to a voice signal. The new 50th anniversary model incorporates professional Lundahl transformers on both input and output, a switchable active-balanced side-chain, stereo and master linking capability and a mix control for parallel compression applications. Balanced/unbalanced XLR and TRS options are provided throughout. Features Switchable External Side-chain — fully integrated version of the original Mix/Blend Control — allows for built-in parallel compression Configurable Stereo/Master Linking — useful for bus compression and multi-channel dynamics processing Dynamics Processing — capable of creating otherworldly sounds Dynamic Reversal — the first of its kind, soft signals come out loud and loud signals come out quiet, simulating tape reversal, a near unique attribute of this versatile compressor Function Control — sets a ratio over a continuous range allowing extreme expansion, to infinite compression, and is even able to push further into dynamic reversal Variable Control of attack and release time Variable Control of maximum gain and maximum attenuation Gating — amplitudes of signals that fall below a set threshold are ‘squooshed’ Expansion — widen a signal’s dynamic range, louder gets louder, softer gets softer Compression offers variable control of compression ratio Infinite Compression — if you want everything to come out at the same level, this is the feature for you Limiting — a fast, versatile limiter, useful for maintaining a loud sound Intuitive Interface — clean and easy to operate Specifications Line Input Transformer-coupled, balanced XLR and TRS 1/4 Line Output Transformer-coupled, balanced XLR and TRS 1/4 Side-chain Input Active balanced XLR and TRS 1/4 Side-chain Output Active balanced XLR and TRS 1/4 Link Input Control voltage, TS 1/4 Link Output Control voltage, TS 1/4 Input/Output Levels Gain Range: -30dB to +30dB Input Impedance 25 kOhms, transformer-coupled Output Impedance 80 Ohms, transformer-coupled
