Equipped for modern users Traditionally the original hardware features stepped controls letting you adjust your settings in bold chunks. Of course the Comp DIODE-609 includes this but also includes continuous control capabilities letting you mix between the lines. Additional features include mid-side processing with built-in sidechain EQ controls and unit calibration parameters. The newly-appointed Unit Calibration parameter lets you virtually adjust the diode-bridge circuitry to reduce the headroom for a more compressed and harmonically-rich sound. Classic Neve-style sound A cornerstone throughout the industry Arturia have captured the complete sonic definition of the original hardware in the Comp DIODE-609. Built with groundbreaking engineering Comp DIODE-609 lets you inject the signature glue punch and warmth into your tracks.

Not just a compressor Comp DIODE-609 also features a crunchy and colourful limiter. Anything but transparent the limiting circuit includes all the necessary parameters to tailor the response to any mix including threshold recovery and an attack speed switch ranging from Fast to Slow. Even when used to protect the peaks of your mix with light gain reduction the warmth and analog flavour it imparts is undeniable making it ideal for use with digitally recorded tracks to remove their sterile sound.
