The electronics are unchanged: four discrete 1979 VCAs, one in the audio path and one in the sidechain of each channel, but the whole unit is now fully recallable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFull recall in a mastering chain\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe client comes back two weeks later asking for a revision on one album track. On a standard compressor, threshold and make up are continuous pots, so matching the earlier setting is guesswork by ear. Here both parameters carry 41 detents, exactly like the ratio, attack and release switches the VSC-3 has always used. You write the click positions into the session notes and return to an identical setting two weeks or two years later. The same applies across the two channels: matching left to right stops being a trim by eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSoft TipToe and a sidechain that does not pump\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoft mode is not a conventional soft knee but a ratio that rises with level, from 1:1 up to 8:1, which keeps the onset of gain reduction inaudible. For firmer work there are 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, 10:1 and Brick at 40:1, all with loudness compensation. The SC filter in each sidechain offers two gentle curves, so the low end does not vanish from the detector, it simply stops causing pumping. Stereo, Dual Mono and Mono SC modes plus a Peak or RMS detector cover both mastering and mix bus duty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreshold and make up on 41 click stepped potentiometers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull recall of every parameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFour discrete 1979 VCAs across two channels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft TipToe mode with a ratio rising from 1:1 to 8:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRatio settings: 2:1, 4:1, 8:1, 10:1 and Brick at 40:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen attack times from 0.1 ms to 40 ms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTen release times including Auto fast and Auto slow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSC filter with two gentle curves in each sidechain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperating modes: Stereo, Dual Mono and Mono SC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetector switchable between Peak and RMS\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNon linear gain reduction meter with fine resolution to 6 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue hardwire bypass of the whole processor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThreshold range: -22 dBu to +23 dBu on a 41 position stepped pot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMake up gain: up to +22 dBu on a 41 position stepped pot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 117 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 10 Hz to 70 kHz (-3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum input level: +22 dBu\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum output level: +27 dBu into 600 Ohm, balanced floating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal to noise ratio at +6 dBu: 97 dB (20 Hz-20 kHz, unweighted, RMS)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoise: -91 dBu (20 Hz-22 kHz, unweighted, RMS) at 0 dB unity gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrosstalk between channels: better than 100 dB at any frequency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCinemag transformer input, That 1646 or Burr Brown output\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower consumption: max 12 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMains voltage: 115 V or 230 V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"VERTIGO SOUND","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58444333973836,"sku":"47218","price":5640.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0769\/9854\/1644\/files\/VERTIGOSOUNDVSC-3CompressorMastering1.jpg?v=1786977903","url":"https:\/\/noiseroom.lt\/products\/vertigo-sound-vsc-3-compressor-mastering","provider":"Noise Room","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
