The FMR Audio PBC-6A "vintage-y" compressor possesses sonic bits'n'pieces reminiscent of many vintage compressors. The PBC-6A provides an unusual control complement to provide maximum flexibility in dynamically sculpting your sound: variable sidechain, sidechain access, hyper-exponential & linear release envelope control (Normal/THICK mode), 4 different linking methods, separate ATTACK & RELEASE time controls, hardwired bypass function and balanced audio input/output stages.
How It Sounds
The
FMR Audio PBC-6A is capable of a large range of effects. In a minimum
DRIVE and KNEE setting, the resulting effects is a subtle, slight
textural change to the source. Increasing DRIVE levels and, more
drastically, increasing the KNEE control causes a less gradual change
from low ratio compression to larger ratios occuring over smaller input
signal changes. The result can be a drastic alteration of the source
sound. Whether you're trying to get a sound to "sit right" in the mix or
create over-the-top sonic effects, the PBC can be adjusted to help you
realize your vision!
How It's Done
Combining
FMR Audio's trademark digitally-controlled analog processing in a
"no-threshold" (i.e., very low threshold) feedback configuration, the
input DRIVE, KNEE and SIDECHAIN FILTER controls are key to the PBC's
flexibility. Additionally, the THICK control subtly restores the natural
transient dynamics to the signal.
- Mono compressor in 1/3 rack size.
- Accurate & repeatable 5-parameter controls.
- Variable eight-position, second-order sidechain filter increases effect flexibility.
- Flexible, three method link mode with TRS link cable. Multi-channel links are possible.
- "THICK" mode smooths compressor action.
- Peak-hold, average "dot" mode meter, helps visualize sonic action.
- 1/4" TRS sidechain insert for special effects.
- Rack-mountable.
