OverEasy® or classic hard knee compression with dbx's® ultra-musical program dependent attack and release times
Compression ratio variable from 1:1 through infinity :1 to negative compression
Precision dual RMS LED display monitors input or output and gain reduction over a wide range and calibrates for different operating levels
Over 60dB of gain reduction available
Exclusive Infinity+ compression allows negative compression
Independent balanced and unbalanced outputs can drive 600 loads to +24dBm simultaneously. New floating balanced output stage drives any load
Optional output transformer capable
Strappable with another 160A for true RMS stereo summing operation
