Q2 Audio F760X-RS Compex Limiter
The Q2 Audio F760X-RS “Compex Limiter”™ is a faithful recreation of the original but updated for modern manufacturing methods. Q2 Audio has added a side chain access point on each channel (1/4” TRS) that can be switched from compression to the expander/gate section by moving an internal jumper. Improvements have been made in voltage references and the potentiometers upgraded to conductive plastic as well as multi-turn trimmers to preserve calibration over longer periods. Due to the discontinuation of the original meters, a high-quality Simpson analog meter has been substituted.
