The BCL20 is a broadcast quality dual Compressor/Limiter with a built in De-Esser
function, designed for FM transmitter protection and disc mastering as well as PA
and studio applications. The unit may be operated as two independent channels or
linked for stereo programme processing. The BCL20 offers full control over Threshold,
Ratio, Attack, Release and Gain make up. Each channel has two high resolution
twelve segment LED bargraphs, one to display gain reduction and another which can
be switched to display input or output level. The I/O meter can be switched between
Peak or VU response. A unique feature of the BCL20 is the inclusion of control over the
detection characteristics, which can be mixed between Peak and RMS levels. This
enables the compressor to be made sensitive to high energy transients or to wider
programme modulations. The De-Ess function is activated by means of a single switch
which inserts a slew rate sensitive filter into the side chain to produce frequency conscious
compression in accordance with FM transmission or disc mastering pre-emphasis. A rear
panel jack insert point allows the connection of an external equaliser in the sidechain for other
frequency conscious processing applications. The BCL20 is equipped with high impedance
balanced inputs and transformer balanced outputs on XLRs. The output stage features a unique
Transformer Distortion Cancellation circuit, which reduces transformer distortion to negligible
levels. The BCL20 is manufactured in accordance with directives encompassed within the ‘CE’
regulations particularly those concerned with RFI protection.

Innovation The ARX COMPO? is a unique compressor/limiter designed for use in any professional audio dynamics control application, packaged in a compact 1 RU chassis.The COMPO operates as two independent compressor/limiters, with 'industry standard' variable Threshold, Ratio and Output gain controls. A Stereo Link switch on the front panel lets both channels track as a stereo pair in a Master/Slave configuration. Enhance Switch The COMPO 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. The best way to think of it is as a 'smart' loudness control. Wide Scale metering There is comprehensive LED indication of all operating functions and status. Above or Below Threshold LEDs on each channel give you instant visual confirmation of compressor activity, as well as easy to read LED Gain Reduction meters. Balanced Inputs and Outputs On the rear panel, each channel has true differential Balanced inputs and outputs, on both XLR and TRS jack connectors. Other features include an Active/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. ARX Quality With its smooth compression, intuitive user friendly layout, high density precision circuitry, and extensive user-variable operating parameters, the ARX COMPO is the ideal installation 'set and forget' compressor, and is also equally at home in Studio, Broadcast and Sound Reinforcement environments.
Every day, ARX Audio interface products solve audio problems for thousands of people around the world.

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. This filter allows the 1074 to not only clean up tracks, but gives you frequency selective control on each gate, to open exactly when you want it to. These features combined, make the 1074 an absolute must for those who require quad gating on applications including: Gating dry and percussive sounds such as snare drum and kick drum,gating sounds that have longer decay times such as cymbals and Pianos, gating hum or buzz from live instruments or recorded tracks or eliminating Headphone leakage into microphones. Gating instrument microphones to eliminate amplifier bleed.
From the company that has been redefining the standard of signal processing for more than 30 years, dbx® Professional Products comes a bulletproof product that caters to the scrutinizing needs of those who require the precision noise gating capabilities. Once again, the engineering staff at dbx® Professional Products have taken technology that has been over three decades in the making and have created a product that is flexible, versatile and rock solid in construction design. The 1074ʼs independent channel design with key filtering capabilities make it the perfect tool for countless applications.
