Hi
does anyone know about what type of compressor the RYTM has?
VCA
FET
Opto
And, would anyone care to comment who has a RYTM what the compressor reminds them of e.g. 1176, LA-2A etc?
ps, I’m not expecting the compressor to be like a 1176, but I would expect it to be better than a dbx266 which really rolls off treble.
My guess it’s a VCA based compressor and it uses one of the That Corp IC’s

Interesting, never poked my nose under the covers that much.
I’ d love to know who their customers are and who buys what to put into known branded equipment.
Hi folks,
I’ve recently been having fun playing around with running mixes through the stereo compressor of my Rytm MKII, partially since its the only “hardware” compressor I own.
It got me wondering if anyone has some insight into what the compressor circuit is like, how it is designed, and if it has some compressor style it is modeled after. I’d imagine is essentially some VCA circuit, but I’d be curious if anyone knew anything more. Some time ago, it appears someone mentioned that it could use a THAT 4301 in the design…
Thanks!

Is there any detailed info about the comp from the maker itself?
