The Avalon VT-747SP combines a creative STEREO tube-discrete Class A spectral-opto-compressor with a musical six band program equalizer, L-R output level and gain reduction metering and internal regulated power supplies in a 2U space. Ideal for high performance DAW input signal conditioning, stereo buss compression-EQ, stereo keyboards and analog mastering applications.
SPECTRAL-OPTO-COMPRESSION The opto-compressor features a minimum signal path design utilizing sealed silver relays for all signal routing and by pass functions. The optical attenuator acts as a passive level controller with a Class A, variable gain make-up amplifier. Full dynamic control from soft compression to hard-knee limiting can be achieved with master threshold, ratio-compression, attack and release controls. Gain reduction indication is a large analog VU meter. Low frequency and high frequency contour parametric spectral controls can be routed into the side-chain path for enhanced frequency dependent compression with variable frequency and threshold levels. SC listen provides side-chain listen mode for monitoring. SIX BAND PROGRAM EQUALIZER The VT-747SP equalizer utilizes 100% discrete, Class A high-voltage transistors for optimum sonic performance. The six band STEREO program EQ incorporates the smooth characteristics of an all passive design. The frequency turnover, Q and amplitude ranges have been carefully chosen for each band to provide the most natural harmonic balance and lowest phase change while offering simple and effective tone control. The EQ can be placed pre or post the opto-compressor for enhanced effects. TSP - TWIN SIGNAL PATH The VT-747SP features TSP which gives you the choice of either tube tone or the classic, Class A discrete transistor sound by exchanging, three (3) high-voltage dual triode tubes with discrete amplifiers in the opto-compressor and primary output stages. INPUT-OUTPUT and METERING Fully balanced DC coupled, Class A discrete amplifiers are utilized for the input and output drive interface with+36dB input headroom. A high quality analog VU meter indicates accurate gain reduction. Twin 60dB range LED meters provide fast L-R output status of all levels.

The ARX AFTERBURNER? is a unique Multi Mode compressor/limiter designed for use in any professional audio dynamics control application. Multiple Modes The Afterburner can be set up and used in three different ways: In Two channel mode, it performs as two independent compressor/limiters, with 'industry standard' variable Threshold, Ratio and Output gain. In stereo mode, our New Adaptive Stereo Link circuitry provides increased stereo imaging accuracy when linking both channels as a stereo pair. A single front panel switch puts the Afterburner into its alternative Mono mode, setting it up as a Single channel, Dual Band compressor/limiter, with separate dynamics control of both Low and High frequencies, opening up a whole new range of gain control techniques. Enhance Switch In any mode, the Afterburner features an 'Enhance' switch, which provides frequency restoration to preserve the spectral balance of the audio signal, compensating for the sagging Low and High frequency response of compressed program material. Think of it as a 'smart' loudness control. Features Switchable Modes - Stereo; Dual Channel Single band; or Single Channel Dual Band (Low and High) Low and High frequency compression in Single Channel mode 'Enhance' switch restores spectral balance of compressed signal New Hard/Soft knee compression switch New Adaptive Stereo Link circuit for accurate stereo imaging New Above/Below Threshold LEDs enable at-a-glance compression confirmation Balanced XLR and Jack Inputs and Outputs Sidechain Insert points Intuitive user-friendly layout Flawless performance New Above/Below Threshold LEDs enable at-a-glance compression confirmation New Hard or Soft knee compression option New LED metering provides accurate Level status, with separate Gain Reduction metering in easy to read 'wide scale' meters. There is also comprehensive LED indication of all operating functions and status in any mode. Balanced Inputs and Outputs On the rear panel, each channel has true differential Balanced inputs and outputs, on both XLR and TRS jack connectors. As well, each channel has a TRS jack Sidechain access insert point, for applications such as De-essing (when used with an external equalizer such as the ARX Multi Q or EQ 260).Other features include a true Hardwire bypass switch for each channel, and passive RFI filters on the inputs. Universal AC Power AC power range is a universal 100 to 120V or 220 to 240V AC, and is connected to the unit via a removable power lead and standard 3 pin IEC connector, with built-in fuse and voltage change switch. With its smooth compression, intuitive user friendly layout, high density precision circuitry, and extensive user-variable operating parameters, the unique ARX Afterburner is equally at home in Studio, Installation, Broadcast and Sound Reinforcement environments.

Description
The alphaton Feedback-Controller FC-100 is a revolutionary product for every microphone application including wireless types. It can provide effective feedback control to any sound reinforcement situation. It can also eliminated string feedback in guitars and bass instruments which are equipped with piezo or condenser pickups. The FC-100 provides 6 to 10 dB of feedback protection by analysing the incoming signal, detecting the presence of feedback and then notching out the feedback frequency. The FC-100 relieves the sound engineer automatically. It works dynamically and eliminates a feedback signal before it can grow into a peak. Internally a discriminator circuit detects the presence of regenerative feedback and triggers the automatic equaliser to insert a notch where the feedback peak is coming up. This normally prevents other peaks from developing but if they do, the process is repeated at high speed, thus keeping feedback under control.

The latest addition to the 10 Series product line, the dbx® 1074 QuadGate™, is the perfect companion to the 1066 and 1046. The 1074 offers 4 channels of gating with threshold, depth and release controls on each channel. The 1074, like the rest of the products in dbx 10 Series, is based on the legendary dbx V2 VCA and offers XLR inputs and outputs, and 1/4” side-chain input. In addition to an external key input per channel, the 1074 also has an internal filter that can be independently activated and controlled on a channel-per-channel basis.
