Many engineers have a go-to compressor - or a few, for that matter - that impart a distinct character on what passes through it. But what if you had a compressor that could mimic the best of vintage and modern compressors? The Trakker from Crane Song employs discrete Class A circuitry to provide transparent compression with a soft or hard knee that performs well at both the tracking and mixing stages. The Trakker has the controls you'd expect to see on a compressor, with a knob to select the type of compressor that will be used. This opens up a whole world of sonic possibilities. But our favorite feature on the Trakker: you can link up to eight of them together for 7.1 surround mixing.
