Frequently Asked Questions
The compressors are functional, but don't expect transparent, surgical control—they're more basic, providing a decent boost for vocals or instruments needing a little extra punch.
They’re semi-parametric, offering a wider mid-band frequency selection than a standard fixed-mid EQ, but the Q isn't adjustable, limiting precision.
It's acceptable for regular gigging, but handle it with care; the plastic chassis isn't as durable as metal-cased consoles and could be susceptible to damage from rough handling.
