galore Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Up for sale is this DE-CL, compressor and limiter in one pedal by FEA Labs. The pedal was bought from FEA and always kept on pedalboard. It's almost unused, therefore it's in mint condition - see pictures. It's completely functional, no defects whatsoever. It has an internal trim pot for threshold sensitivity. The pedal has velcro on the back which can be taken off if requested. I don’t have the original box but I have all the papers including invoice. Tradewise I'm interested in FEA Photon Fuzz II and Damnation audio MBD-1, no other trades please. Shipping within EU is free. This is a great dynamics control pedal, the saturation feature is phenomenal. Reason for sale is lack of use and it just takes up space on my pedalboard. Here’s your chance to get a mint FEA pedal. Description from the manufacturer: The FEA DE-CL utilizes two sidechain control engines for audio signal dynamics control. The compressor sidechain is based off of the FEA Opti-FET compressor sidechain for its smooth compression qualities. The DE-CL’s limiter sidechain is optimized specifically for high performance limiter operation. The limiter has an adjustable attack so that it can also be used as a very high ratio compressor if desired. Both the limiter and compressor control a single optical gain cell in the audio path for parallel processing of the audio signal dynamics. This compressor and limiter configuration allows for multi-slope compression that is found in some high-end rack units. This is the first FEA compressor/limiter that utilizes adaptive release circuitry. Adaptive release is sometimes referred to as “program dependent release” by other compressor manufacturers. Adaptive release is designed to behave more like the dynamic response of our human hearing. If the instrument signal triggers the threshold in short bursts then the release will be fairly quick. If the threshold is continually activated over a period of several seconds, then the release will be slower. This adaptive release sounds very natural and balanced. The DE-CL utilizes audiophile grade Burr-Brown SoundPlus™ operational amplifiers for audio signal amplification. The Burr-Brown™ amplifiers were specifically chosen for their outstanding audio performance. The output amplifier circuit also contains a warmth control. The warmth circuit is designed to integrate amplifier characteristics and harmonics that have a warming tonal presence. With the warmth control set to minimum, the output amplifier operates in a clear, linear fashion for very low distortion. As the warmth control is increased, the output amplifier is made to operate in an increasing asymmetrical mode along with transient nonlinearities. The range of the warmth circuit is very large and can create tonal warming harmonics far beyond typical warm sounding amplifiers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
