ZenPro description of modification:
Auto Release is modified to act like the original buss compressor it emulates
Op-Amps are swapped out for a smoother, more pleasing tone and texture
Capacitors are upgraded for extended bandwidth and more open detail
The 7720 VCA stereo compressor is a great tool for shaping the punch and tone of your mixes with both accuracy and flair. The 7720 is based on a traditional VCA design that delivers spectacular audio performance with a universally acclaimed compressor tonal characteristic
The 7720 compressor has a sonic imprint that is sweet, clean and highly musical as well as shining when pushed hard. It does both transparency and glue with panache: making a mix louder and punchier while imparting an expensive, modern-sounding cohesiveness. With low ratios it treads gently but when pushed, it can introduce harder compression and a hint of distortion (we call it color) providing a harder character.
The unit features a unique Sidechain feature providing you with the ability to trigger the compressor with an outboard audio signal and giving you extra creative flexibility. You can use the High Pass Filter to shape the compressor’s detection circuit, not the actual audio in order to minimize lower frequency audio signals' effect on the compression character of the unit. Six different high pass frequencies provide a wide variety of choices.
