Break On Through

$369.00

Brick wall limiter, CV variable distortion threshold, release setting and CV input for amplitude modulation on the output. Our CV inputs use opto-couplers for very smooth modulation – DC coupled.

Based on a classic analogue microphone limiter design that was, legend has it, hijacked by an electronics-savvy record producer, and used on numerous records for ‘breaking through’, particularly with drums and percussion.

We’ve upgraded and updated the circuit to produce a colouring block with a vast pallet.

Features

  • Input Gain and Threshold adjustments for limiting and fine-tuning distortion
  • CV input to Threshold for detailed control – synced oscillator or envelope for example
  • Release control to further shape the distortion
  • LED indication for distortion
  • Output Gain for setting level
  • CV Input to amplitude-modulate output – subsonic or audio frequency modulation
  • Solid metal sleeve jacks for longevity and stability
  • Fitted with DACS custom aluminium knobs
