Revolutionary hybrid technology meets legendary compression heritage in the Hyper Luminal Compressor from Darkglass. This groundbreaking pedal combines an analogue VCA with digital side-chain control, creating the first truly hybrid design in compressor pedal engineering.
The innovative architecture allows Darkglass to faithfully recreate the sonic characteristics of history’s most revered compressor units whilst maintaining a completely analogue signal path. This unique approach preserves the warmth and musicality of analogue processing while harnessing digital precision for unprecedented control.
Musicians can now access the distinctive compression flavours that have shaped countless recordings throughout music history, all housed within a single, expertly crafted pedal that maintains signal integrity from input to output.
- Multiple compressor emulations in one pedal unit
- Fully analog signal path with digital side-chain
- Modelled versions of some of the most sought after compressors ever
- Blend mixes the clean and effected signals
- Time sets the time constants (Attack and Release)
- Output sets the overall output volume of the unit
- Compression sets the overall amount of compression
- Ratio adjusts the amount of compression
- Mode Selects the unit's Mode (BUS - Solid State Logic Bus Compressor, FET - 1176, or SYM - 115 GeV)
- Micro USB B connector - connect the pedal to PC/Mac to set Time settings, parameters, and future firmware upgrades
- Uses a regulated 9V DC adapter with a centre-negative plug
- Current draw of 250mA
