Crane Song Trakker
Not just another confusing Swiss Army Knife compressor; it's actually hard to make the TRAKKER sound bad.
The Crane Song TRAKKER is a high quality Single Channel Discrete Class A Compressor Limiter - and is one of the few high-end Class A compressor-limiters out
there that lets you choose from a wide variety of behaviors, ie, hard
and soft knee (each with several different slopes), vintage, clean,
optical, air optical, etc. It functions either as a musically transparent compressor or as a vintage compressor - limiter with selectable hard or soft knee. It is a maximum-versatility toolkit for solving real-world recording, broadcast, and sound reinforcement problems with the utmost attention to signal quality and can create distinct new sounds or maximize existing ones.
The TRAKKER features adjustable threshold, attack, release, knee shape, and makeup gain controls. In addition to these controls, a function switch allows the selection of transparent operation or vintage operationsCharacter Switch such as optical, air optical, soft knee, and hard knee - each with four different amplifier/gain control sounds. Trakker's link switch allows for linking up to 8 units, making multiple TRAKKERS the perfect solution for surround mixing...
Amplifier gain control sounds are :
- Transparent
- Vintage (tube or old style Class A)
- Transparent with VCA artifacts
- Vintage with VCA artifacts
