Renaissance Axx - Plug it in. Turn it up.
Specifically engineered for guitar, Renaissance Axx is the ideal compressor for musicians and engineers who need to dial in dynamic levels quickly. With its three efficient controls, Renaissance Axx features a fixed ratio curve, automatic release value, and an output limiter to prevent clipping.
- Threshold Sets the point at which attenuation begins and controls automatic make-up gain
- Gain Attenuates the output signal
- Attack Sets the time it takes to begin attenuation after signal passes the threshold.
- Input Meter Displays the signal input level, with a peak hold function for both input channels
- Output Meter Displays the output level, with a peak hold function for both output channels
- Attenuation Meter Indicates attenuation level from the compressor and output limiter.
