Crane Song STC-8/H Stereo Compressor / Peak Limiter – Detented Gain – Dave HillFor sale is my Crane Song STC-8/H stereo compressor/peak limiter, designed by Dave Hill and built in the USA.This is the STC-8/H version, featuring factory-detented output Gain controls for accurate, repeatable recall while retaining continuously variable control of the other compressor parameters.The STC-8 has long been one of the standout pieces of high-end analog dynamics processing. It is equally at home across a stereo mix bus, during mastering, or anywhere extremely transparent dynamic control is required.One of the things I’ve always appreciated about the STC-8 is its ability to control dynamics without making the source sound obviously compressed. At the same time, its KI and HARA modes allow considerably more character when transparency isn’t what you’re after.FeaturesSTC-8/H version with factory-detented output Gain controlsDiscrete Class-A audio pathBalanced, transformerless I/OStereo or independent dual-mono operationSimultaneous compression and peak limitingKI and HARA character modesA-Mod attack modulationProgram-dependent release optionsPreset operating modesBalanced XLR inputs and outputsSidechain accessMade in USAConditionThis unit has lived in my recording studio and has been used as professional studio equipment rather than toured or subjected to road use.It is fully functional and performs as it should.Please examine the photographs for cosmetic condition; I’ve tried to photograph the unit clearly so there are no surprises.ShippingThe STC-8/H will be packed carefully and shipped fully insured within the continental United States.
