This unit is in mint condition.
This is a great mastering grade compressor.
The Dangerous compressor is Incredibly versatile, easy-to-use, stereo bus compressor featuring a Unique Smart Dynamics dual-slope detector handling transient peaks without ducking the average level, making modern compression levels easier to achieve and totally transparent.
The innovatively designed audio circuitry by legendary designer Chris Muth is top notch
The unit has Auto Attack/Release – simplify and achieve top flight results
Two audiophile-grade internal sidechain EQ settings
Hard and soft knee slope selection
External sidechain routing
Audiophile-grade VCAs for controlling levels without artifacts
Stepped ratio settings from 1:1 to 20:1
Multiple meter modes
The published technical specifications are exemplary, with a frequency response that’s flat within 0.
25dB from 15Hz to 80kHz (not reaching –3dB until 6Hz).
Given its maximum signal I/O level of +27dBu and a noise floor of –93dBu, the Compressor’s potential dynamic range is an impressive 120dB, while distortion is below 0.
005 (THD+N) and 0.
007 percent (IMD).
Crosstalk between the two channels is also very impressive: it’s quoted as 115dB at 1kHz, but I measured it closer to 117dB, and better than 109dB at 10kHz.
These figures confirm this product’s suitability for genuinely independent two–channel processing, if you don’t mind the channel–linked configuration modes.
In cases where more sophisticated EQ or other external processing is required, the Compressor has fully balanced side–chain sends and returns, with the sends always being active provided the Compressor is ‘Engaged’.
The return signals (for both channels) can be selected instead of the internal signal at the press of a button, and the side–chain signals can also be monitored through the main outputs, if desired, making it much easier to tune an external equalizer.
