TK Audio T-Comp 500

The T-Komp 500 has a unique design which offers a modern take on the old vari-mu ratio curve. The ratio is level dependent and increases with the signal level, a feature that will give you numerous possibilities.
To make the T-Komp more useful it has two ratio ranges. The first one goes up to 20: 1, perfect for instrument tracking and smashing drums etc., the second, 2: 1, is a more narrow range which makes it more suitable for bus compression.

The T-Komp can be selected between feed-forward mode for a punchy, modern response or feed-back mode with a smoother, more musical response.

The RMS detector has five settings, four from fast to slow where number four, the slowest, is similar to the old 160VU. The fifth position is a program dependent adaptive mode.

• Ratio which increases with the signal level.
• Two ratio ranges, 1: 1 to 20: 1 or 1: 1 to 2: 1.
• Feed-forward or feed-back mode.
• Five RMS settings, fast to slow and an adaptive mode.
• Blend control for parallel compression.
