■1CH Multi-Voice Vacuum Tube/Opto Compressor

■Overview
This is a simple and easy-to-use 1U-sized compressor. It can enrich instruments, smooth vocals, prevent tracks from clipping, and take your projects to the next level. There are many options for sound creation, so you can create sounds in a way that suits you.

■OPTO and FET Multi-Voice
This is a multi-voice compressor that can be used by switching between OPTO and FET. OPTO is a compressor that combines an optical compression circuit with a gain stage using a tube (12AT7) after the optical compression circuit, adding the warmth of a vacuum tube. FET is a FET compression circuit, and the compressor is a solid-state circuit including the gain stage.

■Parallel Compression
The BLEND control allows you to blend the effect sound and the dry sound. You can add a dry sound that maintains the original dynamics to the compressed sound, achieving a richer sound.
