Product Description

The Rane Model DC 24 Dynamic Controller is a two channel Compressor, Limiter, Gate/Expander system with very unusual attributes.

Total freedom from control interaction highlight the DC 24 as well as the availability of separate Compressor and Limiter controls. The Compressor offers control over both Ratio and Threshold, while the Limiter allows setting a separate Threshold.

If that's not enough, the DC 24 also offers independent Gate/Expander Ratio and Threshold controls. This third level of signal manipulation makes the DC 24 a most useful and revolutionary device. Attack and release times are automatic and program dependent. This simplifies use of the DC 24, as these subtle controls can confuse most users. History has proven that experienced compressor users rarely miss these controls after using a DC 24. The internal Crossover allows the DC 24 to operate as a two-way speaker dividing network along with a fully featured Gate, Compressor and Limiter on each Output. In addition to this application, the DC 24 supplies the necessary circuitry to allow the unit to divide a single channel of audio information i...
