500 Series optical compressor sends vocals straight to the front.
Love your 500 Series rack, but can’t quite pull off that “high-end” vocal sound you hear in your head? Enter The Brute from Inward Connections. This 500 Series compressor/limiter is a gentle giant, adding substantial warmth and presence to your vocal. It helps bring out a breathy and airy quality while at the same time smoothing out peaks and bringing the vocal up to the front of the mix where it belongs. A monster on vocals but not to be overlooked on guitars, bass, and anywhere else an optical limiter can be of use.
Excels at giving you an up-front vocal sound
No frills here, just results. Send a vocal through The Brute and it’ll sound like you’ve been working for days…or using gear many times more expensive. This optical limiter loves bringing vocals right up front in the mix, while retaining a smoothness and airiness, so you get just the right amount of squeeze. A VU meter is a nice addition for the 500 Series format, added to by a 250Hz highpass filter plus a link switch for when you can’t get enough of The Brute.
