This enables stable gating and eliminates 'chatter' around threshold.  Controls via a single variable threshold and switchable fast\/slow auto release. \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDe-Esser:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floating threshold de-ess operation where the de-esser automatically and continually readjusts its own threshold level.  The MX60 de-esser is almost completely automatic requiring the user only to select a switchable male or female setting and to adjust the amount of de-essing required. Only the sibilant sounds are subjected to gain reduction so that the lisping effect of simpler de-essers is avoided. \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e High and low shelving sections as well as fully parametric mid range EQ with variable frequency, 'Q', and ±18dB cut\/boost. \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eCompressor:  High quality VCA compressor based on that of the MX30 and DL24.  Both the attack and release times are Program Adaptive leaving the user with only ratio, threshold and make-up gain to adjust. \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTube sound:\u003c\/strong\u003e Multi band 'tube saturation' allows users to create subtle warming, high frequency effects or out-and-out obvious effects via three separate, independently adjustable audio bands.  Low settings on all bands enable replication of classic tube mic sounds. \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput:\u003c\/strong\u003e The output stage includes a limiter with a preset threshold (+16dB) and a variable master fader with output bargraph metering which sets the overall output level from OFF to +15dB.  A two stage soft\/hard limiting approach has been adopted with yellow and red LEDs signifying soft (approaching limit point) and hard limiting (hitting limit point). \u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Drawmer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449242546279,"sku":"3057","price":1139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/drawmer_mxpro-60_1.jpg?v=1787088279","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/drawmer-mxpro-60-front-end-one","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
