Darkglass Super Symmetry Black – Limited Edition

Darkglass Super Symmetry Black – Limited Edition offers all the transparency and precision of a modern compressor with the twist that its inherent envelope effect is reminiscent of old school compressors.

The effect is easy to adjust with only 6 straightforward knobs. Like all Darkglass pedals, the Mix knob allows for mixing the compressed and clean signals, ideal for fast compression adjustment (to reduce it you can dial back the blend and avoid having to readjust your Input and Output levels for unity gain). The Input knob adjusts the gain on the compressor. Besides working great for ensuring clean operation, it also allows for adjusting the threshold over which the compressor starts reducing gain.

The Attack knob sets the time until gain reduction begins (higher settings will translate into faster Attack times). The release knob sets the time after which the signal goes back to pre gain-reduction levels. Higher release settings will hold the compressed signal for shorter time.

The Compression knob sets the amount of compression (Peak Reduction) and the Output knob sets the output volume of the compressed signal.

The Super Symmetry has a current draw of 30mA. Only use a regulated 9V DC adapter with a center-negative plug. Due to ecological reasons it does not accept batteries. Unregulated power supplies and/or higher voltages may result in suboptimal noise performance and even damage your unit, voiding the warranty.
