DIGITAL RACK MIXER M32R User Manual
Fair Comp / M/S Fair Comp / Dual Fair Comp
This classic tube compressor not only achieves record bids in high-end
vintage gear auctions, it also delivers some of the finest colourations in
compressor history. Two small trim VRs preset the control side chain action, a
six-step switch determines the timing, and the two large Input and Threshold
knobs adjust the levels. Our FAIR COMPRESSOR model is true to the original signal
path, and conveniently provides models for dual, stereo-linked or M/S operation.
Inspired by Fairchild 670.
INPUT GAIN
determines how much of the input signal passes through the effect.
ACTIVE
toggles the effect in or out of the signal path.
THRESHOLD
determines
how loud the signal has to be before compression is applied.
TIME
switches the
compression’s release time.
BIAS
changes the simulated tube bias algorithm.
OUT GAIN
affects the gain of the output signal.
Stereo Leisure Comp / Dual Leisure Comp
The immaculate tube signal path in this Levelling Amplifier has left its
exceptional clarity, its rich and warm compression on countless albums of
the past decades. The ultra-smooth optical attenuator is closely modelled
in our LA COMPRESSOR. It provides breezing, natural and effortlessly
musical compression.
Inspired by Teletronix LA-2A.
GAIN
determines how much of the input signal passes through the effect.
ACTIVE
toggles the effect in or out of the signal path.
COMP/LIMIT
determines
whether the effect acts as a compressor or a limiter.
OUTPUT GAIN
affects the
gain of the output signal. Increasing
PEAK REDUCTION
means that only the
signal peaks are reduced in level.
Stereo Ultimo Comp / Dual Ultimo Comp
This classic compressor was one of the first audio processors to use Field Effect
Transistors. Our digital reincarnation, ULTIMO COMPRESSOR, is based on the
early Rev. E model and authentically captures the smooth character of the
original class-A output stage and its FET’s legendary Fast Attack.
Inspired by
Urei 1176LN.

RATIO
all work as per standard
compressor functions. With the Dual Compressor, functions for each of the
channels are split between Layers 1 and 2.
Dual Enhancer / Stereo Enhancer
The M32’s Enhancers are so called ‘Psycho EQs’. They can enhance the signal
spectrum in bass, midrange and high frequencies, but they differ from
traditional EQs. When you need to generate maximum punch, clarity and
detail, without turning up the overall volume, our enhancers are the solution.
Inspired by the SPL Vitalizer.
Adjust the
BASS
,
MID
and
HI GAIN
push encoders to add or reduce content in
those spectrums. The
BASS
and
HI FREQ(
uencies) can be specifically selected,
while the
MID Q
(bandwidth) can be adjusted instead. The
OUT GAIN
push
encoder compensates for changes in level resulting from the effect, and
SPREAD
(stereo version only) emphasises the stereo content for a wider mix. Engage the
SOLO MODE
to isolate only the audio resulting from the effect so you can hear
exactly what you’re adding to the mix.
