Eventide Omnipressor 2830Au Rackmount Dynamics Processor

Special Order Item

The 50th anniversary Model 2830*Au Omnipressor® is a professional-quality dynamic modifier, combining the functions of an analog compressor, expander, noise gate, and limiter in one convenient package. Its dynamic reversal feature makes high-level input signals lower than corresponding low-level inputs. Musically, this reverses the attack-decay envelope of plucked strings, drums, and similar instruments and gives the effect of “talking backward” when applied to a voice signal.

The new 50th anniversary model incorporates professional Lundahl transformers on both input and output, a switchable active-balanced side-chain, stereo and master linking capability and a mix control for parallel compression applications. Balanced/unbalanced XLR and TRS options are provided throughout.

Features
Switchable External Side-chain — fully integrated version of the original
Mix/Blend Control — allows for built-in parallel compression
Configurable Stereo/Master Linking — useful for bus compression and multi-channel dynamics processing
Dynamics Processing — capable of creating otherworldly sounds
Dynamic Reversal — the first of its kind, soft signals come out loud and loud signals come out quiet, simulating tape reversal, a near unique attribute of this versatile compressor
Function Control — sets a ratio over a continuous range allowing extreme expansion, to infinite compression, and is even able to push further into dynamic reversal
Variable Control of attack and release time
Variable Control of maximum gain and maximum attenuation
Gating — amplitudes of signals that fall below a set threshold are ‘squooshed’
Expansion — widen a signal’s dynamic range, louder gets louder, softer gets softer
Compression offers variable control of compression ratio
Infinite Compression — if you want everything to come out at the same level, this is the feature for you
Limiting — a fast, versatile limiter, useful for maintaining a loud sound
Intuitive Interface — clean and easy to operate
