3 - Main characteristics
Stereo Compressor/Limiter/Gate with Link and Side Chain functions - 19" edge-rackable.
The CP2 is a professional tool allowing you to modify the dynamic of one stereo sound signal, or two mono signals.
The Gate section allows you to suppress the parasitic and background noises by preventing any signal lower than
the determined threshold to go through the audio circuit.
The Compressor section allows you to modify the signal dynamic in order to optimise its rendering or mitigate its
peaks.
The Limiter section allows you to prevent the incoming signal from going beyond a certain threshold once processed
in order to protect your speakers from the damages of an excessive volume output.
