{"product_id":"pendulum-ocl-500-compressor-limiter-used","title":"Pendulum OCL-500 Compressor\/Limiter (Used)","description":"Since its introduction in 1998, the Pendulum OCL-2 Compressor\/Limiter has become a modern classic. In fact, the OCL-2 changed the way users think about opto compression! Our custom opto cell provides fast, invisible compression without the artifacts and sluggish response inherent in vintage designs. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe NEW \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePendulum OCL-500\u003c\/span\u003e has\nthe same compression circuit as the OCL-2, but uses a transformerless\nclass A solid-state gain makeup circuit in place of the tube stage. The\nresult is clean, transparent compression that can be used to shape the\ndynamics of any source while preserving its tone. Like the OCL-2,  the\nOCL-500 has a wide variety of time constants and dynamic control to\noptimize the compression characteristics, including a sidechain hi-pass\nfilter.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOCL-2 compression profile with our proprietary opto cell \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSix time constants with fast, rms, multi-slope and average \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClass A solid - state (no tubes) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSidechain hi-pass filter \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSingle-space 500 series rack format\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eOCL-500 Specifications \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFormat:\u003c\/span\u003e API® 500 series standard, fully compatible \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eInput Impedance:\u003c\/span\u003e 20K-ohm, balanced \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eOutput  Impedance:\u003c\/span\u003e less than 50 ohm \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eMax.
