EVENTIDE / Omnipressor 2830Au

The 50th Anniversary Model 2830*Au Omnipressor is a professional-quality dynamics modifier that combines the functions of an analog compressor, expander, noise gate, and limiter in one unit. Its dynamic reverse function adjusts high-level input signals lower than corresponding low-level inputs. Musically, it reverses the attack and decay envelopes of plucked strings, drums, and other sounds, creating a ""reverse playback"" effect.

The newly released 50th anniversary hardware reissue features professional Lundahl transformers on both the input and output. It features switchable active balanced sidechain, stereo/master linking, and a mix control for parallel compression. Balanced/unbalanced XLR and TRS connectors are provided on all inputs and outputs.

Features

Switchable External Sidechain: A fully integrated version of the original.

Mix/Blend Control: Provides built-in parallel compression.

Configurable Stereo/Master Link: Useful for bus compression and multi-channel dynamics processing.

Dynamic Processing: Creates a whole new dimension of sound.

Dynamic Reverse: An industry-first feature. Soft signals are output louder, and loud signals are output softer, simulating tape reversal. A nearly unique feature of this multi-function compressor.

Function Control: Continuously set the ratio. Supports everything from extreme expansion to infinite compression, and can even go further into dynamic reverse territory.
- Variable attack/release time control
- Variable maximum gain/attenuation control
- Gating: ""Squeezes"" signal amplitude below the set threshold.
- Expansion: Expands the signal's dynamic range, making loud sounds even louder and quiet sounds even quieter.
- Compression: Variable compression ratio control
- Infinite Compression: Ideal for outputting all sounds at the same level.
- Limiting: A fast and versatile limiter. Helps maintain high volume sound.
Intuitive interface: Simple and easy to use.
