The Focusrite Red 3 Dual Compressor/Limiter employs an unusual and original single VCA design to achieve high quality and truly independent compression and limiting. Proprietary Focusrite design is fully discrete and balanced, offering superb low noise and distortion, and excellent common mode rejection. Sidechain electronics are Class A, ensuring superb transient response. Features include a stereo switch for true stereo operation from a single set of controls, key inputs with illuminated push button selection, illuminated push button switches for compressor/limiter in/out on each channel, and precision VU metering of signal level or gain change (switched). Can operate as a discrete channel unit.
