API Stereo 500 Series Compressor
29 January 2018
API’s latest 500 series module is the 529 Stereo Compressor. Based on the success of the 2500, the 529 takes many of the features and controls from API’s famous stereo compressor and puts them into the first dual slot 500 series module from API. Carefully designed to deliver a wide range of compression options, the 529 delivers warmth, clarity and punch, whether used for subtle adjustments or heavy compression effects.
The new 529 compressor features API’s patented Thrust circuitry for a punchy low end, along with an Old/New switch that lets you choose between classic and modern compression characteristics: Old for vintage-style feedback compression and New for more common feed-forward compression. The Auto-makeup Gain button allows for ratio and threshold adjustment without affecting the output level.
Using API’s discrete op-amps and transformer technology, the 529 provides the legendary analogue sound of API. The 529 features API’s unique 5 year warranty.
