The Solid State Logic THE BUS+ 2-Channel Bus Compressor and Dynamic Equalizer is designed for professional audio applications.
The Solid State Logic THE BUS+ 2-Channel Bus Compressor and Dynamic Equalizer is designed for professional audio applications. It features stereo, dual mono, or mono operation options. The unit includes two XLR 3-Pin Female inputs and two XLR 3-Pin Male outputs. Sidechain inputs are provided for both incoming and outgoing signals. The input impedance is set at 10 Kilohms, while the output impedance is 60 Ohms. Maximum input and output levels are both 27.5 dBu at 1% THD.
Compression threshold ranges from -20 to +20 dB, with ratio options including 1.3:1, 1.5:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 5:1, 10:1, 20:1, -2.5:1, -1.5:1, and -0.5:1. Attack time can be adjusted between 0.1 to 40 ms, while release time options include 0.05 to 1.2 Sec, Auto, and Auto 2.
