Inside the current build
Start at zero and turn to taste. Let the part guide you, then compare with MAGIC at zero, using output trim to keep the listening level similar.
Turn either filter clockwise to remove more. HP raises the cutoff and rolls away the lows; LP lowers the cutoff and rolls away the highs. CUT BELOW and CUT ABOVE sit beside precise, editable frequency values.
Shape the ends with switchable shelves or bells, then work the middle with two parametric bands. Place the EQ before or after the compressor to choose how tone and dynamics interact.
Set threshold, range and release to control the space between notes. Choose gating or a gentler expansion response to suit the performance.
Input and output trim, polarity, pan or stereo balance, a long fader and CUT complete the strip. Peak meters and dedicated gain-reduction displays keep its action visible.
Four compressor characters
Four original dynamic behaviours, with the main controls in the same place.
Controlled, soft-knee compression with manual or automatic release. The CORE starting point for shaping the performance.
A broad knee and a ratio that develops as the signal pushes harder. Smooth control with a progressive response.
Fast, firm compression for a more forward response. Reach for it when the part needs to speak with more urgency.
Programme-dependent levelling with fixed attack and ratio, and a longer recovery component for a steadier performance.
