EMPIRICAL LABS PUMP 500 Series Compressor

500 SERIES CLASSIC KNEE COMPRESSOR MODULE Originally imagined in 2014, PUMP is a single channel, 500 series rack mount compressor loaded with the kinds of features and performance you’ve come to expect from Empirical Labs. This module has serious heritage and shares family DNA with notable ELI processors including the renowned Distressor, Arousor, and Mike-E. The PUMP is destined to be a “go-to” processor for the creative audio pro that has a toolbox built around no compromise performance, quality, and value. Specifications: - Frequency Response – 5 Hz to 175 kHz (-3dB points). - Dynamic Range – 125 dB from maximum output (.5%THD soft clipping) to minimum output. Noise floor with Output on 0 is typically – 101dBu. - Distortion – between .0035% and 15% at 1KHz, depending on mode and settings. - I/O – Maximum Input before hard clipping – +22dBm, “ Line In” mode. Maximum Output (Mix at 0) – +28.5dBm - Impedance – 120k Ohm, Instrument In Mode, output impedance is less than 75 ohms. 20K input impedance in balanced Line in mode. - Compressor Time Constants – Attack: 200µs to 40ms. Release: 50ms to 500ms, plus Opto setting. Stereo Linkable for stereo tracks. - Detector HP Filter – Switchable, fixed at 110Hz - Attack Modification (AtMod) – Slows the initial onset of the attack envelope allowing more transient back into the track. - Saturation Soft Clipper – based on the same circuit found in the Mike-E CompSat section. www.empiricallabs.com
