32 Classic EQ

Classic four-band parametric EQ with proportional Q providing versatile, musical results on nearly all instruments and sounds. Switch between shelf and peak mode on the high and low bands and use the overlapping mid bands to carve out your classic sound.

32Classic High Pass / Low Pass Filters

Experience the ultra-wide frequency ranges of these famous filters. High Pass from 25Hz to 3.15kHz and Low Pass from 160Hz to 20kHz allows a range of filter control from extreme to beautifully subtle. Use them in combination with the 32Classic EQ for unique results.

Saturation

Use the DRIVE knob to adjust the signal level fed to the Saturator (post input trim) to apply warm, harmonic saturation based on the consoles Jensen JT-MB-CPCA transformer-coupled mic pre. The drive meter displays the level of the signal fed to the Saturator (dBFS).

Compressor

The full-featured Compressor provides all the control you would expect in a standalone unit, with three types of compression (COMP, LEVEL, LIMIT) and a Sidechain filter with sweepable frequency and a ‘listen’ function. The ‘Emphasis’ knob allows you to access more vintage character by forcing the compressor to react more quickly to louder sounds resulting in smoother results.

Gate

Enjoy the full-featured Gate/Expander that can tame the bleed in your live tracks or add more expressive and dynamic articulation to pre-recorded loops and sounds. The gate reports its gain-reduction beside the fader. The reciprocal push/pull action of the reduction LEDs provides great feedback.
