Alesis 3632 dual compressor features two independent compressors and limiters with gate functionality. Alesis 3632 gives you high quality output and connectivity with XLR inputs and outputs as well as a Sidechain option. 3632 offers easy-to-use functionality in an intuitive 1U rackmount design.
With the push of a button the 3632’s attack and release times can be set to engage automatically depending on the source signal; in this mode the 3632 applies a fair amount of compression with no extremes. The 3632 can function as either two separate processors, or stereo linked to provide true stereo compression. Alesis 3632’s Expander/Gate keeps unwanted noise out of your sound. When your signal falls below the threshold you’ve chosen, the Expander/Gate pushes low-level noise down or simply closes the gate, depending on the parameters you’ve dialed in, denying the noise access to your audience or your mix.
The 3632’s sidechain function on each channel allows you to use it in external effects loops or in other common compressor applications such as ducking; use the sidechain function to trigger compression on a signal when you want it. A second, internal sidechain employs a switchable low-cut filter to help control pumping due to heavy low-frequency content.
