The new E Series Dynamics Module for 500 Series racks reproduces the characteristics of the SL 4000 E console channel strip. It features a compressor/limiter and an expander/gate, both of which return faithfully to the circuitry and key components of the SL 611E Series channel strip. A true RMS converter is used in the side chain while the gain element is an all discrete design identical to the Class A VCA chip used in the original unit. The compressor contains additional switching options to defeat the over-easy curve and to use a linear release instead of the more usual logarithmic curve. The result is a compressor with three distinct voices, each with its own musical character.
