Description
Introducing the Buzz Audio SOC-20, a masterfully crafted optical compressor that merges vintage charm with modern versatility, making it an indispensable tool for any studio. The SOC-20's audio path is meticulously designed with proprietary BE41 Class A discrete amplifiers and Lundahl output transformers, ensuring a sonic character that’s both rich and vibrant, with a full-bodied bass and a sparkling top end.
Dive into the realm of creativity with the SOC-20’s innovative mid-side processing. This feature splits the stereo input into mid and side signals, allowing you to manipulate the stereo image with precision, ideal for mix bus processing or electronic music sub-mixes. The SOC-20’s side chain flexibility is equally impressive, offering a high-pass filter to enhance bass response and a balanced insert point for further tonal shaping or dynamic pumping effects.
Control is at your fingertips with five attack and six release settings, complemented by intelligent auto modes for effortless operation. The soft knee ratio settings provide a gentle to strong leveling, perfect for a variety of recording applications from vocals to instruments, and even on the stereo bus to cohesively bind your mix.
