Looptrotter Emperor analog dynamics processor

Description: EMPEROR is an analog dynamics processor, which depending on the settings can work as a compressor,limiter or harmonics distortion generator. It was designed for creating the original, vivid, analog sound forinstruments, subgroups and the whole mix.EMPEROR is fitted with an intuitive, easy to operate control panel, deliberately rid of in/out metersor sound reduction indicators – so you could focus solely on the sound not the sight. EMPEROR is a creative device giving the sound a powerful, analog character. It’s not transparent. EMPEROR uniquely enhances the perceived loudness, warms up and brightens the audio signal, dependingon the DRIVE settings.The very core of the EMPEROR is a FET transistor responsible for sound reduction and introductionof a small amount of low order harmonics, and it’s design is inspired by the limiters and transistorcompressors from the 60-ties. Apart from that EMPEROR includes many original solutions stemmed froma long-term experience of Looptrotter in construction of dynamics processors, which guarantees uniquesound. EMPEROR is equipped with two, independently working filters embedded in the control circuit. This givesthe possibility to create the timbre without unwelcome phase shifting: in case of cutting the low frequenciesin the control signal, the EMPEROR acts more transparent and natural with the signals rich in lowfrequencies like kick drum, or bass guitar. This can decrease the distortion of low frequencies and thepumping effect; while boosting the high frequencies in the control signal the EMPEROR acts like an analogde-esser, or very fast compressor for bright and dynamic instruments. EMPEROR has also an independent control over DRY and WET signal. This allows to decide whether theaudio tracks need only slight colorization, preserving the original dynamics, or if running the signal throughEMPEROR in 100% is required.
