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.
