★Advanced Analog VCA Compressor
The Mastering Compressor has all the functionality of the Bettermaker VCA Compressor. It's a new generation analog VCA mastering compressor that offers digital control and recall while incorporating almost every musical expression function a compressor can offer in one box. All operations can be performed both on the unit itself using the 5-inch touchscreen and five encoders, or from a plug-in controller.
Product Overview: 100% analog audio signal path, forward/backforward feed switch, backlit 5-inch touchscreen with compression curve display (Mastering Compressor only)
- 6 encoders and push action (Bus Compressor only)
Peak or RMS detection and auto release. Switching between BM, SG and DX modes for the Bettermaker compressor. Switching between stereo, dual mono and M/S operation modes, solo mode and sidechain look-ahead function. HPF, LPF and adjustable parametric filter for sidechain and external hardware insert. Wet/dry control for parallel compression. Adjustable drive function for clipper and THD function for rich harmonic sound. Range setting and limiting of maximum gain reduction. High-pass filter on the input stage adjustable from 15 - 30 Hz. All parameters digitally controllable via DAW/plug-in. Internal PEAK/RMS level measurement. USB connection to MAC/PC. Total recall, A/B comparison function, 399 nameable and storable presets. Hardware bypass.
●Compressor Mode◎BM Mode Bettermaker's original mastering compressor mode, with a very unique attack behavior, is the gentlest and most versatile. It operates over the widest range of settings and is ideal for drums and mix buses.
Attack: 5-250 ms
Release: 10-800 ms
・Auto release: YES
Knee: 5dB
SG Mode: Inspired by the VCA bus compressors built into classic British consoles, this mode has the same parameters and uses as the original design, but offers more flexibility with attack and release values.
Attack: 0.1-60 ms
Release: 10ms-2s
・Auto release: YES
Knee: 20dB
DX Mode: This aggressive American compression mode is based on the classic 160A. Like the original, the attack and release parameters are fixed.
Attack: 40 ms
Release: 100 ms
・Auto release: NO
Knee: 0dB

Knee: Variable 0 to 20dB
Output: -5dB to +15dB
Wide (M/S): -8dB to +8dB
Range: Variable 0dB to 20dB / off
High-pass filter 24: Off/15/20/25/30 Hz
THD+Drive: off/odd/even
- Side chain HPF: off to 370Hz
- Side chain LPF: 2k to 18k / off
Sidechain MF Gain: +/- 15dB

- Side chain type: RMS/PEAK
Specifications: Frequency response: 20Hz to 20kHz (+/- 0.2 dB)
Dynamic Resistance: 120 dB @ +18 dBu, 20 kHz BW
◎CMRR: max 85 dB @ 3 kHz, min 52 dB @ 20Hz, 20 kHz BW
Balanced stereo input (XLR), 23dBu max input level (THD < 0.2%)
Balanced stereo output (XLR), 23dBu max output level (THD < 0.2%)
Input impedance (differential): 48kΩ (for balanced signal)
Output Impedance: 50Ω + 50Ω (electronically balanced)
◎2U size: 230mm deep (Mastering Compressor)
◎1U size: 230mm deep (Bus Compressor)
