BAE-10DCF

Flexible Dynamics Control for Any Source

The BAE-10DCF is a compressor and limiter based on a classic 1980s broadcast design. It can deliver transparent compression, vintage-style coloration or firm limiting, depending on the application. Independent compressor and limiter sections provide detailed control over dynamics, while the inductor-based side-chain filter helps preserve low-frequency content during processing. With adjustable threshold, ratio, attack and recovery settings, the BAE-10DCF is suitable for tracking, mixing and mastering, as well as processing vocals, drums, guitars and full mixes.
