TK Audio T-Komp 500
The T-Komp 500 offers a modern take on the old vari-mu ratio curve with a unique design that features a progressive ratio increasing with the threshold level.
Key Features
- Progressive ratio which increases with the threshold level.
- Two ratio ranges, 1:1 to 20:1 or soft 1:1 to 2:1.
- Five RMS settings, fast to slow and an adaptive mode.
- Classic 160vu RMS mode.
- Blend control for easy parallel compression.
- Feed-forward compression.
The T-Komp 500 has two ratio ranges to enhance its usefulness. The first range goes up to 20:1, ideal for instrument tracking and smashing drums. The second range, up to 2:1, is more suitable for soft compression. The RMS detector has five settings, from fast to slow, with the fourth setting resembling the classic 160VU. The fifth position is a program-dependent adaptive mode.
