The Rockruepel COMP.TWO Compressor is quite possibly the BEST and FINEST sounding compressor you'll ever lay ears on. A tall claim? We don't think so. It's also one of the most flexible compressors you'll ever use. We dare you to find out for yourself!
The Rockruepel COMP.TWO Compressor is designed for mastering, mixing and recording and offers a pristine and highly transparent sound due to its exclusive audiophile approach. After years of development and searching for optimal sound and design, Rockruepel has developed the COMP.TWO resulting in one of the best sounding modern variable-mu. This stereo/dual mono compressor is optimized for daily professional use.
The function of the COMP.TWO is based upon the optimized vvariable-mu design and never compromising on highend components and a minimalistic approach. The COMP.TWO is built on fully balanced tube circuitry. The main audio path consists of Sowter input and output transformers, two high end coupling capacitors, input and output tubes (NOS 6N3 and 6CG7). The "true" dual mono design has separate power supplies for every channel. The potentiometers are encapsulated, quality products from ALPS. Every rotary control comes from the Swiss premium manufacturer ELMA. The Hoyt VU meters can be calibrated with a trim pot hidden behind small holes in the rugged front plate. All switches use relays or directly determine control voltage. The two bypass switches separate circuitry, so that only input directly connects with the output (true bypass). An IC is used to regulate the VU Meter. Apart from that circuitry, the COMP.TWO consist of discrete components and is hand wired in Germany.
In addition to the essential controls such as input, output, threshold, attack and release, the COMP.TWO provides a side chain with an integrated three stage filter. (Flat, 50, 74 and 110 Hz). This filter takes out high energy bass frequency that could otherwise affect the compressor’s behavior. The special "amp only" mode uses only the in and output stages and not the compression. Some may say "Tube compressors sound good but they are too slow. I prefer VCA compressors because of their speed." The COMP.TWO accomplishes both, with an attack up to 600μs it is extremely fast but it also has a soft and really musical knee compression for your sound processing.
