Compressor

 

Recording studios often use rackmount 'vocal channels' 
- a mic preamp, compressor, and EQ all in one unit as a front end for vocal recording. 
The Diamond Compressor is our take on a 'guitar channel' 
- a dynamics and tone shaping tool for live and studio use - with low-noise, ultra-linear
signal buffering, smooth opto-based compression, and a versatile 'tilt' EQ that musically
shifts overall frequency balance.
All in a user-friendly 3-control package - just Comp, EQ and Volume.

試聽檔1 for a sample MP3 clip of the Diamond Compressor with EQ on. The guitar used is a Fender American Standard Strat (2nd Pos), into the compressor, and out to a Fender Vibro-King. The sample starts with no effect and then switches to an effect.

試聽檔2 for a sample MP3 clip of the Diamond Compressor with EQ on. The guitar used is a Rickenbacker 330 (bridge), into the compressor, and out to a Vox AC30 Reissue. The sample starts with no effect and then switches to an effect.


Well so far it kills every compressor I've tried.. I love the tone of this one, and your right the EQ knob is brilliant. http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthread.php?t=133343 

I believe the Diamond Compressor would be useful in any style of music, as it only works to improve the tone of the guitar.  http://www.humbuckermusic.com/dicopere.html 

"The pedal does its job extraordinarily well, with absolutely no additional noise audible in the signal, the EQ tilt, the volume setting, standard 9v battery and power adaptor operation, in a tough, durable and small pedalboard-friendly format. This is a well-designed and well-executed product." http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/reviews/guitar_effects/diamond/compressor/index.html?no_takeover 

"The Diamond Compressor is one of the most transparent/unintrusive compressor out there! It works more than a studio compressor than a pedal. http://www.thegearpage.net/board/showthread.php?t=349606


功能特色:
- Vactrol opto-isolator variable resistance path as used in
high-end studio compressors for smooth attack and decay
characteristics while preserving initial signal transients.
- Premium audio components, including 2% polypropylene
capacitors,1% metal film resistors and a pro audio grade 
opamp (our signal path opamp alone costs 8 to 10 times 
what the industry norm uses).
- Post-compressor 'tilt' EQ provides a very musical
tailoring of frequency response - seamlessly transition from a darker jazz voicing to a brighter jangle, 
with flat frequency response at the center detent position.
- Double filtering stage in side chain to eliminate
low frequency modulation while preserving fast
compression response.
- Dual AC capacitive coupling paths for improved transient response.
- Bi-color LED provides visual indication of depth of compression.
- True bypass signal path.
- Battery or standard negative tip 9V DC 
adapter operation, can be powered from
9 to 24 V negative tip.








Compressor Tech Notes:

Inside the Diamond Compressor... 


Diamond Compressor Frequency Response


Below is a graph of the frequency response of the Diamond Compressor with various settings of the 'tilt' EQ. The graph shows the relative change in frequency response, normalized to 1 kHz. The blue line shows the response of the compressor with the tilt EQ set to the center detent position - basically the compressor is flat within a 2 dB range from 90 Hz all the way to 20 kHz! With the tilt EQ set farthest counterclockwise, the red line shows the response tilted towards the low frequency end, and set farthest clockwise, the green line shows the response titled towards the high frequency end. In either direction, there is basically a 6 dB range relative to 1 kHz that the high or low frequencies can be tilted. This allows for very subtle changes in the frequency spectrum throughout the range of the EQ control.


Below is a frequency response graph showing the effect of putting the hi-cut filter jumper in. Normally, the Diamond Compressor ships with the jumper set for filter out, giving the wide 90 Hz to 20 kHz flat response (and still only down 3 dB at the 60 Hz point) seen in the graph below as the blue line. With the hi-cut filter in, the frequency response is now flat (within a 2 dB range) from 90 Hz to about 4 kHz, shown with the red line below.
