This design demonstrates a full-blown compressor/limiter with some neat bells and whistles. With a THAT 4301 at its heart, excellent performance is coupled with reduced parts count and minimal cost. A non-linear capacitor circuit is used to provide low distortion for slow moving signals, but
The UREI 1176 Peak Limiter is a classic audio compressor designed by Bill Putnam, first built in 1967, making use of FETs and using them as a variable resistor to control the gain reduction in the circuit.
The THAT4320 Demonstration System is a self-contained circuit board that simplifies evaluating the performance of a 4320 Analog Engineâ Dynamics Processor IC. It features the 4320 connected in a basic three-control (ratio, threshold and gain) compressor/limiter circuit. An external (±5) power supply is required.
A VCA (voltage controlled amplifier/ attenuator) is the heart of any compressor or peak limiter circuit, and there are quite a few different approaches. All available circuits have limitations, and this article looks at the various techniques used.
compressor/limiter designs. This application note describes in detail the circuitry for two basic com-pressor/limiter designs using these devices. The first design is an above-threshold, hard-knee compressor with variable ratio, thresh-old and gain controls. The second design adds a soft-knee threshold. Suggestions for alignment are
6 sie 2021 · We’ll cover the four main types of plug-ins used to control dynamics: limiters, compressors, expanders, and gates. We’ll discuss the mathematical processes behind these tools, how they affect the sound, and the best scenarios in which to use them.
The Dbx 160 also features a limiter, which is a type of compressor with a high compression ratio designed to prevent audio signals from exceeding a certain level. This is particularly useful for preventing distortion and ensuring that audio signals stay within a desired range.
