Great sounding dynamics control for any program material
New gate timing algorithms ensure the smoothest release
Program-adaptive expander/gates
LEDs for gain reduction, compression and gate threshold
Stereo or dual-mono operation
Balanced inputs and outputs on 1/4" TRS and XLR connectors
Side Chain insert
Classic dbx Auto mode for nearly error-proof operation
