WMD MSCL: High-Impact Stereo Compression in a Tiny Footprint

The WMD MSCL (pronounced "Muscle") is a full-featured stereo compressor and limiter packed into an incredibly small 4HP module. Despite its miniature size, it delivers all the functions you would expect from a professional studio compressor. The MSCL is designed to "glue" your entire mix together, add punch to individual drum sounds, or create aggressive sidechain pumping via the external sidechain input. With intuitive controls for Threshold, Ratio, and Make-up Gain, you have total command over your patch's dynamics, while the built-in limiter ensures your signal stays clean and protected from unwanted clipping.

Key Features:

• True Stereo Signal Path: Process your final master output or two independent mono sources simultaneously.

• External Sidechain Input: Use an external kick drum or trigger to create rhythmic "ducking" effects in your mix.

• Variable Ratio & Threshold: Ranges from subtle dynamic leveling to hard limiting for maximum sonic impact.

• Make-up Gain: Recover lost volume after compression to keep your audio loud, proud, and present.

• Ultra-Compact Design: Professional-grade dynamics processing while only occupying 4HP of rack real estate.
