Alesis 3632 Stereo Compressor Expander Limiter Gate Studio Band

The Alexis 3632 Compressor builds on the popular design of the 3630 - one of the most successful dynamics processors ever made - combining ease of use with versatile features. At just one height unit, the signal processor combines two independent compressors/limiters with extensive processing options. For fast changes, the attack and release times can be automatically adapted to the input material, for targeted work or creative sound design can also be set manually.

With two separate signal paths, it is possible to use the compressors either independently in dual mono mode or linked as true stereo units. In combination with the high-quality VCAs, the adjustable expander/gate ensures a pleasant sound. Via the sidechain function, the 3632 can be optimally integrated into effect channels. In this way, the pumping effects can be easily implemented, which have already turned the previous model into a secret tip for electronic music. Of course, this effect can also be avoided by cutting low frequencies before processing by means of an integrated, switchable high-pass filter.
