Classic British Sound! NOTE: This product requires iLok authorization. For more information, call your Sweetwater Sales Engineer at 1-800-222-4700. The URS 1980 Series compressor digitally recreates the popular 1980's British Console Buss Compressor all the way down to the the IC input and voltage controlled gain reduction amplifier (VCA) characteristics. Using hi-resolution 48-bit "double precision" processing, the 1980 Series is able to minimize internal clipping in the digital domain for the purest sound, optimum clarity, and lots of headroom.The Compressor and Limiter sections are totally independent of each other. Both feature separate variable Attack, Release and Threshold controls. For injecting some British sound into your mixes, be it on individual tracks or the overall mix, it's the URS 1980. URS 1980 Compressor Bundle at a Glance: Independent Compressor and Limiter sections Built-in Internal Side Chain Filtering Listen Key Signal Flow Classic Sound with Modern Features Two Different Plug-ins Independent Compressor and Limiter sections The Compressor and Limiter sections are totally independent of each other. Both feature separate variable Attack, Release and Threshold controls. Built-in Internal Side Chain Filtering The Internal Side Chain High and Low Pass Filters fine tune how narrow or "Broad Band" the URS 1980 Classic Console Compressor will affect the program material. Both Filters completely overlap to dial in problem frequencies. Listen Key The Listen Key is after the Filters section. The Listen Key allows you to monitor the signal being sent to the Gain Reduction detection circuit. Signal Flow The URS 1980 Classic Compressor signal flow inserts the Gain Makeup control before the final Limiter. This is the secret to how hard you can hit the final "Brick Wall" Limiter. The URS Classic Compressor utilizes Feed-back gain sensing. Feed-back gain sensing gives Compression and Limiting a servo type of control. Classic Sound with Modern Features The URS 1980 Classic Console Compressor adds other powerful modern features such as totally variable Compression Ratios, Attack and Release times. Two Different Plug-ins Two different URS 1980 Classic Compressor plug-ins are included: A Compressor/Limiter/Side Chain version and the Compressor only version. The 1980 Compressor/Limiter/Side chain version has a modern "Brick Wall Limiter that was not found on the vintage unit. The 1980 Compressor/Limiter/Side chain version is also well suited for drum Sub groups, Aux sends, and highly recommended especially on the Mix Bus. The 1980 Compressor only version is also 3x more DSP efficient. The 1980 Compressor Only version will act as a Limiter when the ratio is set at 10:1 and above.

Customer Reviews  Elevated my mixes to the next level...   by Jeff D. Ripper from Los Angeles, CA, October 06, 2008 Music Background:  Band Member and Engineer, The Rainman Suite “This was exactly what my mixes needed. The 1980 Compressor provided a smooth, musical punch that my mastering plugin was missing. After tweaking for days on my mixes I got the 1980 going and I knew that my work was done. Give it a try if you are looking for a bit of magic on that stereo buss.” • Write Your Own Review More Plug-Ins: Dynamics from URS: · URS Classic Console Strip Pro Native · URS 1980 Compressor · URS Classic Console Strip · URS 1975 Compressor · URS Classic Console Strip · URS 1970 Compressor · URS 1975 Compressor · URS Classic Console Strip Pro TDM · URS 1970 Compressor View All Products from URS  Tell a Friend About this Item!  Print This Page See Also:  Compression Software
