Side chain functionality is also included with side chain insert points on both channels and a very comprehensive and flexible Side Chain EQ section which offers LF and HF controls with a choice of specific shapes and frequencies for precise frequency-conscious compression such as de-essing. A wet\/mix control also allows you to blend the processed signal with the dry for parallel compression.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition, a fast reacting Dual colour backlit VU Meter is employed to provide a visual indication of the amount of saturation added. Time delay relays are incorporated into the outputs to provide clean power-up and down with no pops or bangs, and a low hum toroidal linear power supply. The Drawmer 1978 is a truly flexible compressor made in the UK with high-quality components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1978 is a Buss Compressor like no other - compression with character, controlled distortion, tonal shaping, wet\/dry mixing - others have tried but have never managed to build a compressor that is this versatile and yet intuitive. It's never been easier to get that elusive characteristic sound that sets you apart from the rest. Glue your mix, bring out the bass, control the highs, add warmth, distortion, smoothen, widen, sound less digital more analogue - and at a price that's right for even the smallest studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMix Control - Precisely Control the Amount of Compression Applied!\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIncorporated into the 1978 is the 'Mix' Control. This acts like a 'parallel compression' effect that mixes the Wet (compressed) and Dry (original) signals to provide a simple and exact way of controlling the amount of compression used - all with the turn of a single knob.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the extensive controls of the 1978, such as saturation and tonal shaping, it could be possible to take the effects too far and ruin a mix - this is easily prevented by the use of the Mix control just by mixing in less of the wet signal and more dry. By the same token, the mix control can add more compression and character simply by adding more of the wet signal. It's that simple!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Drawmer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59032673026431,"sku":"1978-PO","price":650.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1008\/1216\/1407\/files\/1978-PO-1.jpg?v=1793641114","url":"https:\/\/sxpro.co.uk\/products\/drawmer-1978-pre-owned","provider":"SX Pro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
