Unlike other VCA compressors, the VSC-2 incorporates four discrete 1979 VCAs across two channels. This plugin version of the VSC-2 captures every nuance of the original hardware, bringing its smooth, clear, glossy, and precise performance to your DAW.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThe power of Quad VCAs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eEach channel in the VSC-2 is equipped with one VCA in the audio path, and another one inside the audio sidechain, allowing it to even react to out of phase peaks without image shift. The VSC-2 provides variable harmonics depending on Gain Reduction and Make Up Gain, making this compressor one of the cleanest “coloring devices”out there, perfect for precision applications like mastering and mix buss treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eMultiple modes, multiple colors\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAlthough the VSC-2 was developed as a Stereo Bus Compressor, each channel provides a complete set of controls which also makes the VSC-2 a dual mono \"must have\" in the mix. It gets even better in plugin form with a dedicated mono version. Add on unique and innovative features such as the ratio control, which increases with amplitude in “Soft” mode for smoother compression, and you have a clean-but-\u003cspan id=\"docs-internal-guid-d38cc176-7fff-69f3-9098-ded5ee58c6a7\"\u003ecolored\u003c\/span\u003e compressor that can find its way into any mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eCompression, soft or hard\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its Soft mode, the VSC-2 “tip toes” its way into compression, starting with ratios as low as 1:1, and then slowly and automatically increasing to as high as 8:1 as the signal intensifies. This gives you a practically inaudible start to compression, even with extremely dynamic signals. Meanwhile, the Brick mode transforms the VSC-2 into an analog limiter, effectively cutting off signal peaks for a tight, smooth tone with incredibly even transients.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vertigo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50484396622042,"sku":"qvt1790022461310","price":48.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0824\/2954\/2618\/files\/vsc-2_1.png?v=1790022489","url":"https:\/\/hikesteadyfit.shop\/products\/vsc-2","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
