General

If you are looking for a compressor on which to place the label "success number", then the API 225L is undoubtedly it. Not only does this compressor bear the name of a manufacturer you will come across in professional recording studios, it is also based on technology that can simply be called legendary. This compressor uses op-amps that not only made the company's mark in the past, but also set standards today. So apart from the quality, you won't feel disadvantaged at all when it comes to the adjustment options. The threshold value is adjustable from +10 to -20 dBu and the factor for attenuating the signal is variably selectable from 0 to infinity:1. For influencing the operation after the threshold has been exceeded, there are attack and release controls on board separately, and you are also spoilt for choice when it comes to the compression model. You can choose between OLD or NEW compression. The OLD variant uses vintage compression technology and the NEW variant is based more on contemporary VCA compression technology. Use can be done individually but pairing for stereo applications is also a possibility. In addition, you can go for side-chaining if necessary and automatic make-up gain is built in as standard. Placement can be in an L200 rack or a Legacy, Legacy Plus or Vision Series console.
