This type of dynamic process is very useful for the dynamic control of instruments or “single” sounds.

Mono 2 Band + 5 Bands EQ Compressor Presets

There are 8 presets available using the above algorithms:

1) Classic 1	2) Classic 2
3) Classic 3	4) Classic 4
5) Classic 5	6) Classic 6
7) Classic 7	8) Classic 8

These are all designed for use with single instruments. These presets are well tailored for use on classic guitars or acoustic instruments, where different equalizations of the sound (ranging from bright equalizations to warmer ones) can give the instruments more or less character and deepness.

DESKTOP USE

The DigiComp 16 may be placed anywhere safely as needed where it will not fall or be possibly damaged. Attach the rubber feet provided to the bottom of the unit if the unit is placed on a surface you wish to protect.

(Note: The DigiComp 16 itself doesn’t generate any magnetic or hum fields, but it may pick up hum or noise from fields generated by power amplifiers. If it does, re-position the unit to eliminate the noise. Since the DigiComp 16 adapter may generate hum fields, locate it away from other audio equipment or wiring as much as possible.)

RACK MOUNTING

The DigiComp 16 has single rack height, and up to three DigiComp 16’s may be mounted side-by-side in a standard universal 19” equipment rack available from rack manufacturers or your music dealer.
