The BBE® MaxCom™ is
a highly sophisticated Dual-Channel Compressor and Limiter with
Gate, housed in a compact and easy-to-use package. It provides
a live or recorded mix with all the clean, clear punch that only
a truly professional dynamics controller can. However, the MaxCom
is much more than a high-quality, superbly engineered compressor/limiter.
The MaxCom is the first signal processor of its kind to feature
an on-board BBE Sonic Maximizer. The BBE High Definition Sound
process employed by the Sonic Maximizer is world renown among music
and sound professionals for remarkable improvements in total sound
quality, bringing crystalline clarity and air to the source material
as well as revealing rich harmonic subtleties. The MaxCom employs
BBE's latest High Definition Sound technology, in the very same
4th Generation BBE Professional chipset which powers the 482i and
882i Sonic Maximizers.
The “over-engineering” in the MaxCom
ensures that both its compression and gating provide versatility
and excellent
sonic performance in situations where other compressor/gates often
produce undesirable processing artifacts. At the heart of the MaxCom
is a THAT Corporation VCA known throughout the industry as the
premier dynamics processing VCA.
This single-rack-space dynamics processor includes
two independent full-featured compressor/limiters, each channel
having independent
controls for Threshold, Compression Ratio, Attack Time and Release
Time. Additionally, the MaxCom’s “linking” function
allows for phase-coherent tracking of stereo signals and adjustment
from the Channel One controls. Comprehensive metering is achieved
via dual bar-graph meters on each channel that indicate Input Level
and Gain Reduction.
MaxCom’s intuitive design makes it easy to operate, and
its rigorous engineering and robust construction assure clean,
distortion free audio and a predictable, repeatable range of control
from undetectable to clearly identifiable. Whether the goal is
to pull a “lost” instrument up in the mix, control
vocal levels or dial in hard-limited speaker protection, the MaxCom
can accomplish the task with ease, reliability and sonic excellence.
By offering a superb, full-featured compressor/limiter with an
integrated BBE Sonic Maximizer system, the MaxCom has no equal
at any price.
