The design was inspired by the Shure Level-Loc PA limiter, popular for its trashy, ultra compressed sound. The extended features of the Level-Or allows it to achieve what the Level-Loc does and much, much more.\u003cbr\u003eIn \"Level\" mode, the Level-Or acts very much like the Level-Loc. An additional, faster release time has been added for even more flexibility and a broader range of compressed sounds.\u003cbr\u003eIn \"Crunch\" mode, the Level-Or sets itself apart from anything else like it. By sweeping the input level over the range provided, a huge palette of sounds can be reached from slight harmonic enhancement, to aggressive crunch, to buzz-saw like distortion, to complete and utter destruction of the original source material.\u003cbr\u003eBetween these two available modes, there is a huge array of sounds that can be produced from this unit. Simple drum loops can be taken from boring to unique and drum room mics can be crushed or distorted to taste adding size and character to the overall sound. Bass, guitar, and keyboard sounds can be manipulated, taking on completely new and different sounds than the original source material.\u003cbr\u003e*Note: Due to the nature of the design of this unit, it is very aggressive sounding; with noticeable pumping, distortion, and some noise.\u003cbr\u003eWe consider this a good thing!\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Standard Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47248285008009,"sku":"78494","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/8706\/5737\/files\/used_78494_1_a2112f6c-2357-48e3-b0b5-80a9790ba393.jpg?v=1784047441","url":"https:\/\/vintage-king-staging.myshopify.com\/products\/standard-audio-level-or-596-used","provider":"Vintage King Staging","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
