    Klanghelm DC1A3- user guide

    Introduction
    DC1A3 is the little brother of the compression monster DC8C3. I've taken a few of my favorite settings from DC8C3 and tried to make it work in a
    two control context. Sound wise it's comparable to the PUNCH mode in DC8C3 but offers a few additional features, such as negative ratio and
    stereo unlink. I've always wanted to do a compressor with just an input and output knob, a compressor that just works: gentle, faithful, from almost
    invisible, smooth leveling to heavy pumping with a nice crunchy saturation and punchy enough to treat drums with.
    DC1A3 looks like a one trick pony. But don't get fooled by the lack of additional controls. You may be surprised on how many different material this
    little thing works.

    DC1A3 is internally calibrated to 0VU = -18dBFS.

    NOTE: DC1A3 won’t replace instances of the former DC1A2 in your projects. So you can use both DC1A2 and DC1A3 side by side. If you require
    the installer of the old version, it’s still available here: https://klanghelm.com/contents/products/DC1A/DC1Aold
