SAFETY

There are probably hundreds of types of compressor limiters on sale in the
world, all struggling for a place in the market with extra knobs and facilities
and all missing the fundamental point, that a compressor is there to
produce a psychoacoustic effect of power and dynamics, and not to perform
any protective function electronically; it's a creative tool.
The JOEMEEK recreates the dynamics of the old analogue tape and
compressor combination. And yes; it is entirely possible that one day this
algorithm could be written for a digital processor but would it be as
easy to use?

REGULATIONS AND SAFETY.

The

JOEMEEK

Compressor has been designed and built to conform to all

known safety requirements in the world.

Within the European Union the Compressor easily meets the requirements for
electrostatic and electromagnetic emissions, and conforms to all safety
requirements of the European Common Market. The 'CE' symbol on the rear
of the unit indicates compliance.

In the United States of America the compressor complies with UL
requirements.
