Details
Controls: Front-panel knobs (gain, threshold, attack/release, etc. per dynamics-processor design; exact control labels not stated on fetched page)
I/O: Line input: transformer-coupled balanced XLR and TRS 1/4"; Line output: transformer-coupled balanced XLR and TRS 1/4"; Side-chain input: active balanced XLR and TRS 1/4"; Side-chain output: active balanced XLR and TRS 1/4"; Link input/output: CV via TS 1/4"
Notable use: 50th-anniversary reissue of the original 1974 Omnipressor; combines compressor, expander, noise gate, and limiter with signature 'dynamic reversal' effect (Frippertronics/percussive-attack sound); gain range -30dB to +30dB; max input/output level +20dB
Notes: Rack height inferred as 1U from third-party listed enclosure dimensions (483 x 44 x 216 mm, ~44mm = 1U) since not stated on Eventide's own product page; flagged as an inference.
