1309.%9 Reference-Class 2-Channel Expander/Gate/ Compressor/Peak Limiter with Integrated Dynamic Enhancer, De-Esser and Low Contour Filter Audio Dynamics Toolkit Here are just a few of the MDX1600's outstanding capabilities: • Switchable IKA (Interactive Knee Adaptation) - provides program-adaptive compression, combining all the advantages of both hard and soft-knee compression • Enhancer - lets you emphasize the Bass, Midrange and Hi output at selectable frequencies for maximum punch, clarity and detail - without raising overall volume • IGC (Interactive Gain Control) - combines clipper and program limiter for reliable, inaudible protection against signal peaks • De-Esser - "must-have" tool for reducing sibilance in vocal mics, while preserving natural voice timbre - often used to enhance upper-mid, to high-frequency smoothness in vocals, drum overheads, strings, etc. • Side Chain - allows insertion of graphic/parametric EQ to reduce specific frequencies - also often used to "tighten up" tracks using an internal or external signal to trigger compression, or gating of signal being processed (ex. using bass guitar signal to un-gate kick drum) • Stereo Couple - links both channels, allowing Channel 1 dials and switches to provide dynamics control over both channels (true stereo processing) Options Abound The MDX1600 features amazingly-accurate 12-segment LED meters for In/Out Level and Gain Reduction, switchable +4 dBu or -10 dBV operating level, Side Chain I/O, and servo-balanced XLR and ¼" Inputs and Outputs. Best of all, the AUTOCOM PRO-XL MDX1600 takes up just a single rackspace. 2 of 5
