 About C-Console DS2416 Multiband Compressor

New tricks for a not-so-old dog

Here's an inexpensive way to add zero-latency, high-value power to the DS2416. C-Console Multiband Compressor unlocks a unique application of the DSP Factory dynamics processors...unique, but not "boutique". This is a first-class, latency-free mastering and input processing effector derived from unique configurations of DS2416 routings and channel assignments to generate up to eight bands of tightly filtered compression or limiting for each of up to two DS2416 cards...a whopping 16 bands of total compression possible on a single track.

This is a unique application that acts either as a stand-alone program or as an added interface in C-Console DS2416 for applying multiband compression or limiting to live inputs or recorded tracks. This is the power you've been seeking from the DS2416 compression algorithms...true mastering-quality compression with all the control you'll ever need for mixdown, the perfect high-end tweak for those sibilant off-the-floor vocals, and a source of totally new effects with the applyication of completely different compression parameters to different frequency bands.

Mastering-quality flexibility without the hassle

And because it's all done in hardware, there's no latency, no extra CPU load, and no troublesome plugin configurations to deal with. It integrates seamlessly with C-Console 2416, and works with one or both cards. Signals can be fed through DS2416 WAV drivers or AX16/AX44/AX88 inputs to allow control over the signal at any point in the recording and mixing process.

How does it work? Using undocumented features of the DS2416 architecture, C-Mexx' engineers managed to figure out how to route a signal in a way that allowed the steep low, high and bandpass EQs in the DS2416 to feed separate channels, each of which has their own dynamics processor.

You've got an obvious need for multiband dynamics right now. You'll be amazed at the extra creative possibilities you can uncover when you start exploring its possibilities.

 Features

  • Two configurations for one-card systems; three for two-card systems
    - single-card configurations can create two simultaneous four-band dynamics processor or a single eight-band compressor/limiter
    - two-card configurations can create two simultaneous four-band dynamics processors, an eight band compressor, or a single 16-band processor for the ultimate in control at every frequency range.
  • Works alone or as an added C-Console interface view
    - comes complete as a stand-alone C-Console application or merges seamlessly with C-Console DS2416...just install to the same directory as C-Console DS2416 and it's instantly integrated into C-Console DS2416
    - large, simple, intuitive display
  • Dynamic, latency-free automation when used within C-Console DS2416
    - create and play back dynamic compression sequences for those tricky vocals or environmental recordings
  • Compatible with virtually every popular Windows- or hardware-based recording or audio workstation configuration
