The Aphex Model 661 is a totally new type of compressor incorporating vacuum tube technology with the latest innovations in audio compression. This single-channel compressor/limiter is loaded with features, consolidating for the first time in one rack space, three patented Aphex circuits: Tubessence?, Easyrider?, and High Frequency Expander?.
The UNIQUE 661 CIRCUITRY Tubessence is a true tube circuitwhich provides that “vintage” tube sound without high the heat, bulk, short life, fragility, and sonic variability found in traditional tube designs. Easyrider is an Automatic mode that actually works, consisting of the Wave dependent Compressor? (WDC) circuit which takes the guesswork out of compressing individual instruments and vocals especially in live mixes. WDC automatically adjusts attack and release times according to the complexity of the program material. Its No-Knee? compression curve makes the transition into compression virtually invisible. In the Manual mode, the Model 661 provides the full complement of compressor adjustments such as Ratio, Attack, and Release, for maximum flexibility. Express yourself and get those “punch“, “slap“, “fat“, “pump“, and “squeeze” sounds fast and clean. The 661 includes the patented High Frequency Expander? (HFX) which decompresses high frequencies, with user-adjustable ratio and corner frequency. Add “life” and “air” to your compressed signals without fear of background noise pumping. The Spectral Phase Refractor? restores clarity and punch to your tracks. Bass frequencies are more defined with more apparent power. Higher frequencies also seem to gain more detail and presence. Use the Model 661 to control dynamics for mixdowns, protect your sound system’s loudspeakers from transients and distortion or shape the sound of individual instruments and vocals. Compress dynamic levels without fear of reducing frequency response. Whatever type of dynamics control you’re looking for, it can be done with the Model 661 Tube Compressor / Limiter Expressor?.
APPLICATIONS: Music Production – Improve the sound on individual instruments, vocals and mixes Sound Reinforcement – A roadable tube compressor/limiter in only one rack space Broadcast & Post Production – A great vocal processor and a powerful studio tool Project Studios – Improve the sound of digital recorders and workstations Musicians – The ultimate compressor for the professional guitar, bass, keyboard instrument rig
Features: Auto or full Manual operation. In Auto mode, compression parameters constantly change for best sound A true tube circuit (Tubessence) in the output stage for a “warm“, “live” and “full” sound HFX allows the use of high compression ratios without the loss of high frequencies SPR increases the apparent bass energy level, without amplitude equalization or bass boost Use Sidechain Access sends jacks for creative processing (de-essing and ducking) Stereo, dual mono or master/ slave operation for total flexibility

Features
Unique High Density design puts SIX gates in
minimum rack space
Intuitive, 'user friendly' layout
Balanced Inputs and Outputs
Fast, low noise opto-coupler circuitry
Sidechain/Key Input points on each channel
Hardwire Bypass switch on each gate
Flawless performance in any audio environment
The sheer amount of effects and signal processors required for today's
standards of audio production puts a great strain on the available space
in equipment racks, both in the studio and on the road.
So, in order to give engineers more control in less space, we've created
the ARX Sixgate; Six full function noise gates neatly housed in a compact,
all steel 1 RU package, without sacrificing features or quality.
Why Six gates?
Research shows that the majority of noise gates get used on drum kits,
which means using typically 5 to 6 gate channels. Compare this to the
two or maybe 4 channels that most other units have, and you'll see the
reason for the Sixgate's success.And, by using a minimalist approach to
drum gates, the ARX Sixgate has enough gates left over for backing vocals
and other instruments.
Industry Standard controls
Front panel controls for each gate consist of the 'Industry Standard' controls
for Release, Depth and Threshold, plus Red and Green LED displays to indicate
Gate Open or Closed status, and an IN/OUT hardwire bypass switch.
In addition to this, each gate has a blank panel to write on for easy confirmation
of gate assigns. No more pieces of masking tape stuck everywhere!
Ultra Low Noise
Internally, each gate has proprietary ARX ultra low noise high-speed opto-coupler
circuitry with program dependent Attack time, which tracks the incoming signal to
automatically determine optimum gate response.
Balanced Inputs and Outputs
The rear panel features true differential Balanced Inputs and Outputs for each gate,
on insulated TRS jack connectors.Each gate channel also has Individual Key Inputs/
Sidechain access insert points which can be used either for gate control by an external
signal, or for frequency sensitive gating (when used in conjuction with an external
equalizer such as the ARX EQ260).
Universal AC Power
AC power range on the Sixgate is a universal 100 to 120V or 220 to 240V, and is
connected to the unit via a standard 3 pin IEC connector, with built-in fuse and voltage
switch.
The Sixgate's unique combination of High Density design, intuitive 'user friendly' controls,
and clean uncluttered layout make it a truly useful audio tool for all applications.

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.
