h an asymmetrical diode clipper for smooth and musical distortion.The Tilt pot is a simple yet powerful one-knob equalizer : boosting the lows while attenuating the highs when the pot is turned down, attenuating the lows while boosting the highs when the pot is turned up.When the Tilt pot is in its center position, the equalizer is flat.The rear panel switch selects the type of inputs : TRS for stereo sources and TS for mono (the signal is center panned). The last 2 channels include a 2 bands Baxandall equalizer, the input gain can be set between 0 and +10 dB using the rear panel switch.There’s no distortion on these 2 channels so you can use them when you want to keep a clean sound. The compressor has a 3:1 ratio with a fast attack and a mid release times, perfect for mixdown compression.Very easy to operate, it will give you good results with many kinds of music styles.The Bliss pot controls a hi frequency enhancer circuit and is very useful for adding air and punch to your mix, specially when your using large amount of compression.
