NG78
FULLY ANALOG STEREO FET COMPRESSOR WITH DIGITAL RECALL
Core Features:
100% Analog Stereo FET Compressor (1176-style) with +24dBu of headroom.
Five Ratio Settings: 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, 12:1, 20:1 – including All-Button Mode and a gentle 2:1 ratio option.
Extended Attack Range – now starting from slower values for more natural transient control
Total Recall & Plug-in Control – seamless integration with most major DAWs.
Parallel Compression via dedicated MIX knob.
Carnhill Transformer Output Stage for added analog weight and character.
Flexible Detector Linking – choose between dual mono stereo compression or true stereo operation.
Saturation Mode – a dedicated control simultaneously adjusts input and output (compression circuit disabled),
turning the unit into a saturation box or clipper.
Dynamic Link Technology – adaptive circuit that compensates for component tolerances in the sidechain signal,
ensuring perfect stereo balance during compression for every parameter combination.
Sidechain & Metering:
Advanced Sidechain EQ with two independent sections:
- High-Pass Filter at 60 Hz / 90 Hz / 150 Hz – preserve low-end while compressing.
- High Shelf at 2 kHz / 5 kHz / 10 kHz – emphasize mid/high content for precise detection.
2 Vintage-Style Gain Reduction Meters for classic visual feedback.
High-Precision Input & Output Metering for accurate level monitoring.
Additional Highlights
Classic FET Compressor Controls: Input, Output, Attack, Release.
Selectable THD (Total Harmonic Distortion)with Low, Mid, and High modes – tailored harmonic enhancement from the FET circuit.
Fully Digitally Controlled Analog Circuit – isolated control path ensures pure analog signal integrity.
Hardware A/B Switching – instantly compare two independent settings.
Analog Automation in DAW for modern hybrid workflows.
USB & Ethernet Connectivity for flexible plugin integration.
