Theoretically similar to the legendary Fairchild 670 and Gates STA-Level in addition to the contemporary solutions in order to have a better control over the sound. The bespoke design of the branch circuits we just simply call the \u201cmu-follower\u201d. The two channels of the compressor can provide synchronised running throughout the whole range of the transition curve and so excellent gain reduction can be achieved. The time wise working parameters and the saturation characteristics are very familiar to the known tube based compressors.<\/h4>\n<p>The Dictator is a true vari-mu compressor wich consist a pair of pentodes that were mass produced in exceptional quality during Warsaw Pact in countries such as Hungary, East Germany or Poland. The surrounding circuits of the tube amplifier are using the latest technical solutions that allow the most precise parallel channel working characteristics wich helps to achieve extreme setup conditions. For instance, it can be pulsing on a masterbus or it can produce crispy saturation alongside never existed transients and dirty breaks. Or work as a simple saturator with minimal dynamic control. Our intention was to create a master compressor and bus compressor for mixing, but in experienced hands the Dictator can be used as a sound design tool as well. The Dictator keeps every aspect of the sound in hand, it is precise however not always clean, just like all the dictators from the history books.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4 vc_col-has-fill\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner vc_custom_1614546888252\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<h2>Field of application<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4>Master compressor<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Bus compressor<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Tracking compressor<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Sound Design<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Saturator<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-4 vc_col-has-fill\">\n<div class=\"vc_column-inner vc_custom_1614824460703\">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<h2>Main properties<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4>True dual pentode tube design<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Contemporary side chain design<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Modern line driver<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Military grade vacuum tubes (6k4p-EV (6\u041a4\u041f-EB) long life pentode)<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Permalloy transformers<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<h1 class=\"vc_custom_heading\">Dual Pentode Vari-\u03bc Compressor<\/h1>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16020,"template":"","meta":[],"pwb-brand":[667],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1037],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-16152","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","pwb-brand-gainlab_audio","product_cat-compresores-limitadores","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-simple"],"brands":[{"id":667,"name":"GAINLAB AUDIO","slug":"gainlab_audio"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/16152","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/16020"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=16152"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"pwb-brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pwb-brand?post=16152"},{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=16152"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=16152"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/masteringmansion.com\/pro-audio\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=16152"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
