With controls for threshold, ratio, attack, release and makeup gain, it's easy to dial in everything from gentle vocal smoothing to assertive drum shaping.
A built-in limiter helps keep peaks in check without losing detail or musicality. Comprehensive Metering for Clear Visual Feedback The 88C includes three LED meters per channelfor input, output and gain reductiongiving you real-time insight into your signal chain. This layout helps engineers fine-tune compression settings with confidence and accuracy, making it easier to achieve pro-level dynamics in any environment.
