Warm Mode

This  function  is  basically  a  slew  rate  limiter  that  reduces  the 
speed of the output amplifier stages. This affects the frequency 
spectrum, the harmonics and the transient response at the same 

time.

Fast  transients  are  slowed  down  a  bit  and  the  overall  sound  appears 
more round and merged. As this function influences the behavior of the 
output stages, the effect it creates has an impact on the complete pro-
cessing results of the compressor.

This way the xpressor offers two different sound characters at the push of 
a button: the powerful transparency of the discrete class-A circuitry and 
the saturated richness of the Warm Mode.

Now the choice is really up to you: For transparent compression and an 
even frequency response, just use the xpressor in standard mode. For a 
little bit more fat and juicy sound, hit the Warm Mode button and you 
are there!
