Klark Teknik DN540 Creative Quad Compressor

Thursday April 9, 2009. 04:47 PM, by Nantho MusikMesse 2009 > Audio Hardware > Klark Teknik
Audio Hardware : Klark Teknik DN540 Creative Quad Compressor - pcmusicKlark Teknik has launched the DN540 Creative Quad Compressor, the second new product in a brand new series. The DN540 packs four channels of creative compression into a 1U chassis.

The DN540 has been designed with a unique "Harmonic Enhancement" presence control to preserve the harmonic content of the material in a more natural, dynamic state. This allows more compression to be applied, providing greater control of programme dynamics, without the source material sounding dull, lacking in detail and unnatural.

Features :

- Quad channel compressor
- Ease of use, requiring minimum set up to produce excellent results
- "Harmonic Enhancement" presence control to correct loss of detail and intelligibility during compression without increasing noise or likelihood of feedback
- Extremely low noise and distortion levels
- Sonic design which has been "tuned by ear" to produce extremely transparent compression
- Advanced envelope generator with manual controls for creative dynamic effects
- Intuitive controls for all functions contributing to output levels
- Easily identifiable bypass, solo and other major switches, with status LEDs
- Channel linking with true power summing to provide true threshold setting for stereo material
- External sidechain inputs
- Roadworthy 1U chassis
- Balanced inputs and outputs
- Auto switching power supply

Anticipated applications of the new KT DN540 include :

- Protecting signal paths from amplitude overload
- Improving the apparent power of signals when an artists' performance is a little too dynamic
- Maintaining a stable signal level to help an instrument sit within a mix
- Changing the percussive timbre of an instrument to enhance impact
- Compressing a mix so that it maintains a stable signal level (typically to make it sound louder)
- Changing the percussive timbre of a mix to make it sound fuller and to enhance impact
- Frequency conscious compression to remove unwanted sibilance or undesired tonal artefacts via external sidechain

Pricing and availability TBA.
