Great stereo opto compressor for bus compression and overall mix compression.
The MC2 is a professional studio quality stereo compressor in a compact half rack format. Simple to use yet extremely powerful, the MC2 by Joemeek will bring out the best in any line level stereo material and give the gloss of a professional studio to all your performances. It can be used for both recording/mastering, and live work.
Think of the MC2 as three separate pieces of equipment:
•A line level stereo preamplifier
•A stereo Joemeek compressor
•A stereo width processor
