In Dual Band mode, each compressor is assigned to either a low or high frequency band that can then be processed independently, which expands the tone-shaping and dynamic control of the OptoFET into uncharted territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eFrom transparent vocal smoothing to extreme envelope shaping with massive harmonic texture, the OptoFET offers seemingly infinite creative control. Not only does each compressor have fully variable attack, release, threshold, make-up gain and parallel blend controls – plus side-chain high pass filters and special ‘GRIT’ and ‘BLOOM’ harmonic modes – the OptoFET also includes global controls to flip the order of the two compressors in Dual Stage mode, plus a unique variable crossover control to fine-tune the compression across upper and lower frequency bands in Dual Band mode.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003eAnd though it is a single-channel unit, a pair of OptoFETs in dual mono – with 31-position fully detented controls – can add massive impact to stereo stems, groups, or even full mixes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"\"\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RpSQ_Im2Qrs?si=DKCDyY_km30Ensyx\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXLR Line IN to XLR Line OUT (Compressor Bypassed)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Impedance: \u003c\/strong\u003e10 kΩ\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance: \u003c\/strong\u003e40 Ω\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Input Level @ 1 kHz: \u003c\/strong\u003e+24 dBu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum Output Level @ 1 kHz: \u003c\/strong\u003e+24 dBu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNoise (22 Hz - 22 kHz BW): \u003c\/strong\u003e-96 dBu\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Response: \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e6 Hz to 70 kHz:  +\/- 0.1 dB\u003cbr\u003e\u0026lt;5 Hz to 183 kHz:  -3 dB\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHD+N @ 1 kHz:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e0 dBu:  0.002%\u003cbr\u003e+20 dBu:  0.0006%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFET COMPRESSOR SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNoise (22 Hz - 22 kHz BW): \u003c\/strong\u003e-82 dBu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttack Time: \u003c\/strong\u003e100μS – 50mS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Time: \u003c\/strong\u003e50mS - 1.5S           \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"sqsrte-text-color--accent\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOPTO COMPRESSOR SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNoise (22 Hz - 22 kHz BW): \u003c\/strong\u003e-93 dBu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttack Time:  \u003c\/strong\u003e5mS – 50mS\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Time: \u003c\/strong\u003e50mS - 1.5S\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: Compressor time constant ranges represent the full range achievable within all front panel settings.\u003c\/em\u003e                                     \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUNIT DIMENSIONS\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e1RU: 19” W x 8.25” D x 1.75” H\u003cbr\u003e(48.3 cm W x 21 cm D x 4.5 cm H)\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sqsrte-small\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUNIT WEIGHT\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e8 lbs.
