Drawmer 1968 MKII

Dual Channel Tube Compressor.

 

Blend valves and FETs for quality compression

The 1968 MkII is a 1U Tube/FET ‘stereo bus’ compressor which by design delivers a transparent ‘open’ sound even during periods of heavy compression.

 

Key features:

  • 2 Channel Tube/FET Compressor.
  • 2 soft-knee compressors with variable threshold, attack, release and output gain.
  • Switchable BIG and BIGGER control on each channel.
  • Dual mono or true stereo link operation.
  • Side chain access and side chain listen facility.
  • VU metering of gain reduction and output levels.
  • Switchable +10dB mode on VU re-scales the meter for users working at ‘hot’ output levels.
  • VU red warning glow to signify ‘approaching clipping’.
  • Balanced +4dB XLR in/outs.

Due to customer demand we have introduced new features to the 1968 MkII:

  • Expanded the BIG to include BIGGER - setting the filters to 75Hz and 150Hz.
  • Added internal jumpers that can be configured to remove the soft clip section.
  • Added internal jumpers to make the output hotter by 6dB, if required.
  • Improvement have been made to the PSU to lower the noise floor. 

The original Drawmer 1960

used a tube stage at the front of the compressor, whilst the 1968 MkII utilisies a J-FET (Field Effect Transistor) gain reduction circuit that operates faster than an opto-isolator.

The compressor uses a 12AX7 tube makeup gain amplifier where you can add, with the Output Gain control, up to 20 dB of additional gain.

The need for a ratio control has been removed as the compressor operates on the soft knee principle where the onset of compression is progressive.

 

The 1968 MkII expands attack times to six choices:

2, 9, 15, 25, 30 and 50 ms.

Release times come in three fixed times (100ms, 500 ms and 1 second) and three program-dependent choices--200 ms to 2 sec, 500 ms to 5 sec and 1 to 10 seconds--all program-dependent and automatic.

 

The 1968 MkII provides full sidechain access for connecting an external equalizer for vocal stressing or de-essing.

 

Featured on both channels

Is a switchable ‘BIG’ and ‘BIGGER’ mode which applies less processing to the fundamental low frequency but still disciplines the upward associated harmonics which if untamed can result in a ‘boomy’ or ‘boxy’ sound.

The result - a solid bottom end with enhanced sub-bass and a smoother, wider frequency response overall.

This lets the operator use more compression on an overall mix with less pumping action caused by a kick and/or bass instrument.

 

The outputs of Channels 1 and 2

are monitored on two yellow illuminated VU meters - with a red warning glow to signify ‘approaching clipping’.

A three-position switch adjusts the meters to show either normal output level, gain reduction or VU +10dB mode, which re-scales the meter for users working at ‘hot’ output levels.

 

An output switch selects normal compressor output, hard-wired bypass and sidechain listen.
