Tokyo Dawn Labs has launched a sale, offering up to 80% off a variety of products, including the TDR Kotelnikov GE, a compressor that delivers the most precise dynamic range control, at a record low of $10.
The TDR Kotelnikov is a wideband dynamics processor that combines high-fidelity dynamic range control with deep musical flexibility. As a descendant of the venerable TDR Feedback Compressor product family, the Kotelnikov directly inherits several unique features, including a proven control scheme, separate release control for peak and RMS content, an intuitive user interface, and powerful cutting-edge advanced algorithms. With a sonic signature best described as "stealthy," the Kotelnikov allows for dramatic amounts of dynamic range manipulation while carefully preserving the musical signal's original timbre, color, and punch. This makes it ideal for stereo bus compression and other critical applications.
The "Gentleman's Edition" (GE) adds several improvements to the Standard Edition's feature set. The most obvious are intuitive access to various equal-loudness workflows, the ability to specify ratios in a frequency-dependent manner, and a powerful sidechain high-pass filter, allowing continuously variable access across slope and frequency. Yin/Yang functions allow manipulation of harmonic patterns generated during compression. A new "Insane" quality mode further improves processing fidelity. Kotelnikov doesn't attempt to emulate previously available devices; the concept is a proud digital processor, original!
