The Q2 Audio Compex F760X-RS-TX Compressor is a classic FET based compressor that was produced from the early 1970's through the early 1990's. This is an upgraded version with Jensen output transformers and capacitors.
The Q2 Audio F760X-RS "Compex Limiter" is a faithful recreation of the original but updated for modern manufacturing methods. We have added a side chain access point on each channel (1/4" TRS) that can be switched from compression to the expander/gate section by moving an internal jumper. Improvements have been made in voltage references and the potentiometers upgraded to conductive plastic as well as multi-turn trimmers to preserve calibration over longer periods. Due to the discontinuation of the original meters, a high-quality Simpson analog meter has been substituted.
