PowerGrid II enclosures feature recessed slots that enable two 500 Series modules to be flush mounted for a clean look, and provide XLR inputs and outputs.
The PUMP is a fully analog single-channel compressor that shares family DNA with the legendary Distressor® compressor, along with select features from the Arousor® compressor plugin and the Mike-e® microphone preamp. The PUMP offers eight compression ratios from 2:1 to 20:1 (each with an optimized curve), digitally stepped Attack and Release controls, a Detector high-pass filter, soft-saturation clipping, and comprehensive gain-reduction metering.
The PUMP also boasts the unique Attack Modification or AtMod control originally introduced in the Arousor plugin and unavailable on any other hardware compressor. AtMod enables users to shape transient response beyond simply adjusting the Attack control, allowing more transients to pass for greater impact—such as adding a bit more snap to snares or thump to basses.
Empirical Labs products are designed, manufactured, and assembled in the U.S.
