The T-Komp has a unique design which offers a modern take on the old vari-mu ratio curve. The ratio is progressive and increases with the threshold level.
TK Audio T-Komp
To make the T-Komp more useful it has two ratio ranges. The first one goes up to 20:1, perfect for instrument tracking and smashing drums etc., the second, 2:1, is a more narrow range which makes it more suitable for bus compression. The T-Komp can be selected between feed-forward mode for a punchy, modern response or feed-back mode with a smoother, more musical response. The RMS detector has five settings, four from fast to slow where number four, the slowest, is similar to the old 160VU. The fifth position is a program dependent adaptive mode.
hreshold
Make-up gain: 0 to +20dB
Blend control: from dry to wet
Average timing:- 1mS / 40mS (most useful for peak limiting)
- 5mS / 200mS
- 10mS / 400mS
- 25mS / 1000mS (similare to the old 160vu)
- Adaptive mode. To prevent unnecessary low frequency distortion the
circuit acts slower for slow moving signals and faster for fast moving signals.
The attack and release are locked in relationship to each other.FB: selects feed-back mode
HP filter: 150Hz, -6dB octave
In: compression in/out
2:1: selects a more narrow ratio range
