DE-CL (Dual Engine Compressor/Limiter)

COMPRESSOR

The FEA DUAL ENGINE COMPRESSOR LIMITER is designed with both audiophile and studio quality features that many musicians will appreciate. The FEA DE-CL utilizes two sidechain control engines for audio signal dynamics control. The compressor sidechain is based off of the FEA Opti-FET compressor sidechain for its smooth compression qualities. The DE-CL’s limiter sidechain is optimized specifically for high performance limiter operation. The limiter has an adjustable attack so that it can also be used as a very high ratio compressor if desired. Both the limiter and compressor control a single optical gain cell in the audio path for parallel processing of the audio signal dynamics. This compressor and limiter configuration allows for multi-slope compression that is found in some high-end rack units.
