This circuit is based on the well known Shure Level Loc compressor. It
was originally a compressor for podium mics in public address systems,
and was later popularized in the studio environment for it's thick and
squishy JFET overdrive. There are two separate channels, fit into a
properly shielded 1u rack
box, with several added features.
- Balanced XLR inputs with Shure Input transformers. - hand etched front panel with black oxide lettering on buffed semi-mirrored aluminum finish with a clear coat seal - internal linear regulated power supply with excessive filtering for zero AC hum [wall adapter included!] - USA [120vac] and Euro [240vac] compatible - adjustable release times [3 positions: normal, slower, slowest] - 3 position "distance" switch [similar to threshold] - input level potentiometer for each channel - all brand new components on a high quality BLACK printed circuit board - added transistor buffer output stage for low impedance unbalanced output [I can balance outputs upon request]

I can also build these to order, send me a message for details!
