MythVCA 500
VCA compressor - powerful, versatile, complete, and, compact

The MythVCA 500 was conceived as a VCA compressor that would be powerful, versatile, complete, and, as a 500-series device, as compact as possible. It can help bring out any tracks to the forefront of a mix, but also be used on any mix bus to glue it together, or even at the earliest stage of your recording chain.

This is the perfect tool to even out any signal you throw at it: the MythVCA has three different ratio settings (2:1, 4:1, and 10:1), attack times between 0.1ms and 20ms, and release times from 0.1ms to 1.4s. That means you will be able to compress your tracks as softly or as strongly as you want, without ever destroying or cutting your transients too much. It also has an auto-release function, which will “hear” your signal and release the compression as musically as possible.

The MythVCA can also be linked with another MythVCA through an included linking bridge to process stereo signals.
