Smooth Stereo Compression
The TK Audio BC501-LTD provides smooth, transparent compression, perfect for achieving that cohesive and punchy mix associated with classic 80's VCA stereo buss compressors.
The TK Audio BC501-LTD is a limited edition 500 Series stereo compressor designed to deliver smooth stereo buss compression inspired by a classic 80's VCA Stereo Buss compressor.
The TK Audio BC-501-LTD delivers transparent compression and the "glue" that makes your mix more cohesive and punchy. It works perfectly on the mix buss but also as a drum bus or instrument compressor. It boasts a blend control allowing for processing parallel, to add thickness without sacrificing dynamics, and a switchable side-chain filter with a choice of three frequencies (80Hz, 150Hz, 220Hz) to keep the low end punchy and tight without affecting the compressor.
All controls are detented for precise setting and easy recall, ideal for mastering applications. A unique THD switch adds even order harmonics to the signal adding a huge amount of character to the sound while a new "Grab" mode selects a harder knee on all ratios.
The BC501-LTD is limited to 100 units worldwide and bears a silver front panel and hand-numbered.
