Gem Audio Labs Preceptor Model-TThe Preceptor model-T (Transparent) is a two-channel, class-A compressor/limiter. Gain reduction is handled by a discrete VCA design based on Zener diodes and bipolar transistors. There are 16 preciesly matched Zener diodes on board! The Gem Audio Labs Preceptor Model-T compressor/limiter looks right out of the early '70s. Its stepped knobs dole out satisfying clickage and its dual VU meters bathe your console in a warm yellow glow. Hand-built using premium parts, the Preceptor juices whatever you send its way with warmth and sheer size. A neutral-sounding compressor and somewhat aggressive limiter, the Preceptor is at home on tracks or perfect for your mix bus. It also performs excellent in the mastering suite. If you're looking for a versatile, great-sounding compressor / limiter, give Gem Audio Lab's Preceptor Model-T a try.Inputs: Balanced XLROutputs: Balanced XLRExt. sidechain inputs: Balanced TRSSignal transformers: CarnhillBypass: hard relay bypassInput impedance: 2k5Ω or 10kΩ switched on the front panelOutput impedance: 50ΩFrequency response: 20-22.000HzMaximum input level : + 21 dBu @ sensitivity +4 dBuMaximum output level: +23 dBuS/N ratio (A-weighted) : better than 85dBuMeter: 0 to -20dB gain reductionSignal path: Class-A, discreteVCA: bipolar transistors biased by Zener diodesRatio: 2:1, Limit (Fairchild  660)Action modes: hard, softAttack: 0,5ms – 31ms ( switched modes: fast, medium, slow)Release: 50ms – 2sExternal sidechain: YESSidechain filtering : OFF, 40Hz, 80 Hz, 120 Hz, 200 Hz, 320 HzBlender (parallel compression) : yesPSU: internalFuses type: 230V : 630mA (slo-blo; 5x20mm) /115V :1,25A           (slo-blo; 5x20mm)Power consumption: 70WDimensions (WxHxD) : 483x133mm (3U) x 245mmWeight: 6,4kg
