525 API

Feedback compressor in the style of Urei 1176 with variable Threshold and Output levels and at the same time a "Ceiling" control, which changes Threshold and Make-up Gain at the same time, which gives precise control of the compression while the output is kept constant.

• Peak detecting “feedback” compressor/limiter
• Variable Threshold and Output levels
• Unique “Ceiling” control combines key functions
• Analog VU meter for monitoring gain reduction
• 4 Switchable release modes
• De-Ess function
• Traditional API fully discrete circuit design
• Active Balanced Input/Output
• Hardwire bypass
