The DBC-20 is a new take on a vintage technique utilizing a gain reduction element of silicon diodes in a transformer coupled bridge arrangement. This element produces a desirable compression character that can best be described as tight and colourful. The DBC-20 also incorporates a self-adjusting ratio whereby the compression ratio is automatically increased with deepening gain reduction.  This feature allows for the control of very dynamic signals (such as vocals) in a seamless fashion.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe DBC-20 audio path uses the Buzz Audio proprietary Class A discrete amplifier design in a balanced configuration from input to output.  Operation of the compressor is easy with six switched attack and release times, a big knob for the amount of compression and an output gain control.  The compressor can be switched to a soft mode whereby dynamic peaks are partially retained.  Another switch introduces a high pass filter to the side chain to lower compression sensitivity at low frequencies.  Each channel has a bypass switch and the side chain of the two channels can be linked for stereo operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eGain reduction is displayed on a fast response LED bar graph meters that indicates true peak reduction levels. The DBC-20 is housed in a sturdy one unit rack mount enclosure and is built entirely by hands in using through hole serviceable components.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Buzz Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449735442535,"sku":"48975","price":1395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/buzz_audio_dbc_20_front_1_d4a9e2ea-45fe-4708-921f-f4159de23057.jpg?v=1787090191","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/buzz-audio-dbc-20-diode-bridge-compressor-demo-deal","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
