Dangerous Music Compressor

When Dangerous Music set out to design The Dangerous Compressor, they spent over two years figuring out how to achieve modern levels of limiting and compression while avoiding the deadening effects of today's ultra-limited productions. DM makes gear that helps you deliver the impact, punch and clarity that brings music to life, and when it comes to compression and limiting the answer was not to avoid it like some purists might, but to deliver an audiophile-grade tool that provides powerful compression and limiting without robbing the music of its lifeforce. The Dangerous Compressor points the way to the future of dynamics.

• Auto Attack/Release - simplify and achieve top flight results 
• Two audiophile-grade internal sidechain EQ settings
• Hard and soft knee slope selection
• External sidechain routing
• Audiophile-grade VCAs for controlling levels without artifacts
• Stepped ratio settings from 1:1 to 20:1
• Multiple meter modes
