Specifications

The 240 from Aphex combines elements of their Logic-Assisted gate as found on the 230 and 622 and the Easyrider automatic compressor models. The two channel unit is designed to have both technologies work as a seamlessly integrated system. When the gate activates, the compressor is prevented from releasing. This avoids the conflict of the compressor attempting to raise signal level while the gate attempts to reduce it.

The Logic-Assisted Gate technology provides the most reliable, accurate and stable operation of any gate. The circuitry of the gate is designed to never false trigger, click or chatter. Once triggered, even by a microscopic transient, the gate progresses through its attack, hold and release sequence. Controls on the gating portion include Threshold, Attack, Hold, Release and Depth.

Controls in the compressor section of the 240 include Drive, Speed (the baseline release rate of the compressor) and Output. Each channel may be used independently or the two channels may be linked for stereo processing. A front panel multicolored LED bar graph meter displays either peak output level or gain reduction.

The combination of the two processes in one unit provides more effective control with no artifacts. The 240 can be employed in any situation that requires both a gate and compression, such as multi-tracking acoustic drums.

: • Two channel gate with Aphex Easyrider technology compressor

: • The gate and compressor work as an integrated system, never fighting each other. If the gate is triggered, the compressor's gain reduction is "frozen" until the gate is open again

: • A rear key insert jack allows line-level equipment to be inserted into the signal path of the gate's threshold detector for applications such as de-essing or keying the gate to an external signal

: • Insert point is between the unit's input stage and gate detector

: • Universal power supply
