Its dynamic reversal feature makes high-level input signals lower than corresponding low-level inputs. Musically, this reverses the attack-decay envelope of plucked strings, drums, and similar instruments and gives the effect of “talking backward” when applied to a voice signal. The new 50th anniversary model incorporates professional Lundahl transformers on both input and output, a switchable active-balanced side-chain, stereo and master linking capability and a mix control for parallel compression applications. Balanced/unbalanced XLR and TRS options are provided throughout. Features Switchable External Side-chain — fully integrated version of the original Mix/Blend Control — allows for built-in parallel compression Configurable Stereo/Master Linking — useful for bus compression and multi-channel dynamics processing Dynamics Processing — capable of creating otherworldly sounds Dynamic Reversal — the first of its kind, soft signals come out loud and loud signals come out quiet, simulating tape reversal, a near unique attribute of this versatile compressor Function Control — sets a ratio over a continuous range allowing extreme expansion, to infinite compression, and is even able to push further into dynamic reversal Variable Control of attack and release time Variable Control of maximum gain and maximum attenuation Gating — amplitudes of signals that fall below a set threshold are ‘squooshed’ Expansion — widen a signal’s dynamic range, louder gets louder, softer gets softer Compression offers variable control of compression ratio Infinite Compression — if you want everything to come out at the same level, this is the feature for you Limiting — a fast, versatile limiter, useful for maintaining a loud sound Intuitive Interface — clean and easy to operate. To really hustle with the Eventide Omnipressor, you're going to need to get adventurous. This unit boasts some extreme dynamics so you can really put the audio through a mangle. Twist the Function pot to the left and engage the expander to magnify the accents in the performance, or push it to the right to trigger some explosive compression. While these are features that you're likely to get with most compressors, the Omnipressor takes things even further. The Infinite compression function is a prime example, which simply makes everything equally loud, giving the mix a heavy, pumping effect - a popular choice for treating the room mics and for parallel compression. If that's not extreme enough for you, then you can always go for the Dynamic Reversal option and make everything that was once quiet extremely loud, and everything that was once loud extremely quiet - pushing the details of an instrument right to front so you can hear the things you didn't even know were there.
