Groove Tubes Glory Comp at a Glance:Incorporates seven tubesInterface with both -10dBV and +4dBu signalsQuality control and componentsGlory Knob and other unique featuresThe Groove Tubes Glory Comp is a true all-tube compressor, employing seven high-quality and selected vacuum tubes to accomplish its dynamics processing. Its output tubes - a pair of 6005s - offer tremendous output power driving a custom wound and robust output transformer (the Groove Tubes Glory Comp can actually drive a speaker all on its own!).Groove Tubes Glory Comp's fully differential and floating design includes dual isolated output taps on its proprietary output transformer so it can interface with both -10dBV and +4dBu signal levels without sacrificing signal quality or degrading noise specs.Compression ratios from 1:1 to 10:1 are available, as are standard Attack, Release and compression Threshold controls. In addition to release times from 10ms to 2 seconds, users can choose between logarithmic and linear release modes.

The Glory knob's labeling allows adjustment between Earth (no effect) and Heaven (full effect).
