Samson SACOPTI C Class Half Rack Optical Compressor

The Samson SACOPTI C is a single channel, optical compressor and is the perfect complement to a computer or workstations hygienically clean, digital sound. The C-com opti's adjustable threshold, ratio, attack, release and output controls are calibrated to generate a distinctive soft, rich character while providing magnificent control over dynamics. An enhancer provides the added character lost under heavy compression. Key output/input for outboard triggering or external filtering of the key signal. Large analog VU meter for output level or gain reduction. A stereo link input allows for two units to be linked for processing stereo program material. Like other models in the C-com series, the C-com opti can be stacked and tilted in an ergonomically correct operating position.
