Description

Two Channel/Stereo expander/gate. A true dual channel expander using downward expansion with a variable ratio (1.2:1 to 30:1), thus allowing an infinite variety of dynamics control which are impossible with a gate. High and Low pass filters on the KEY input allow frequency selected gating. With high ratio, the Model 612 becomes one of the world's finest gates. It is also a ducker, allowing a KEY input to lower the level of the primary audio input. Made in the USA.
