This auction is for one APHEX Easyrider 4 channel compressor model 106. This product is in excellent condition with minimal rack rash. Non-original but functional power supply.
Excellent for taming snare drums and many other uses. It can be used individually as a 4 channel, single or two stereo channels combined at the same time. From gentle compression to really hard squeeze. It has a fast and slow process, separate drive on every channel, on/off switches, 4 individual peak LED meters monitoring the compression gain. Operating level switches 10db +4db unbalanced and balanced in out TRS jacks, separate in out for each channel.
Sorry but no manual for this.
Drive:
The threshold of the Easyrider is fixed. The amount of gain reduction is determined by input level, the position of the -10dBV/+4dBu switch and the Drive control. As the Drive control is rotated clockwise there will be more output level and, if the level is over threshold, more gain reduction. As the Drive control is rotated counterclockwise the output level will drop and the gain reduction will release. This control is defeated in the bypass mode.
Output:
The Output control adjusts the output level after the gain control. It has a range of approximately 30dB. This control should be adjusted so that when there is a nominal "0" Vu input level, the output is equal to the input. This control is defeated in the bypass mode.
Fast/Slow Switch:
The attack and release characteristics of the Easyrider are automatically adjusted based upon the texture of the input. The Fast/Slow switch adjusts the layered time constants from fast to slow. The slow setting is a more transparent sound, perfect for controlling levels without affecting the sound quality. The fast setting "fattens up" the audio, making it punchier and tighter.
On/Off:
The "On" position sends the signal through the gain control circuitry and engages the metering. The "Off' position puts the channel into hardwire bypass which blanks the meter and defeats all the controls. If the power is turned off, the unit will pass audio in the "off" position only.
Meter:
The meter is a 10 segment LED bar which indicates 2dB of gain reduction per segment. When the meter is fully lit, there is 20dB or more of gain reduction. If the meter gets dim it indicates that the input is clipping. Either adjust the -10/+4 switch or rotate the Drive control counterclockwise.
Power:
This LED will indicate when there is power connected to the unit.
Link:
Channels one and two are linkable to each other and channels three and four are linkable to each other. When channels are linked, whichever channel has the most amount of gain reduction will cause an equal amount of gain reduction in the other channel. The Drive and Output controls still remain independent so they must be matched carefully during set up for stereo operation. -10dBV
