The new low-cost MX30 from Drawmer sets out to make Drawmer’s professional processing available at a more accessible cost, and yet it uses some of the proprietary design circuitry which is used in the models higher up the Drawmer range. The MX30 is split into 3 sections: a ‘programme adaptive’ gate, a soft-knee auto-compressor, and the output section.

• Controls: Gate Threshold, Release, Compressor Threshold, Gain Reduction Bargraph Meter, Ratio, Stereo Link, Output Gain, Peak Limit, Input/Output Bargraph Meter

• Balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4″ jack analogue I/O

• Input, output and gain reduction metering

• 1U rack-mountable
