Mira Optical Compressor
High quality studio grade optical compressor with precision setup
"Mira" is Spanish for "look! " or other words that are meant to inspire attention.
Mira Optical Compressor creates studio-grade sound that requires delicate hearings and feeling, and dynamically captivates your senses.
Mira is True Bypass and packed with the fullest controls commonly found in studio units.
By adjusting each control, it provides a warm analog compression with comfortable sustain and smooth attack & release.
In addition, to increase the headroom, the Mira operates within ±15VDC.

True bypass
Abundant Control Studio Grade
■BLEND
Adjust the amount of compress signal mixed with dry signals.
Mixing the two signals allows you to get a stretch sustain while maintaining crisp sound.
■Make-Up
Compensate for the volume dropped by the compressor.
■ Threshold
Set the volume point where the compressor begins to work.
This allows you to adjust the strength and weakness of the compression.
■Ratio
Set the Ratio of the compressor (volume reduction after the signal exceeds the threshold).
Fine-tune how the compressor responds when the signal exceeds the set threshold.
■Attack
Adjusts the way the compressor works after initial response or signal exceeds the threshold.
If you want to compress your attack instantly, set it to a faster attack time.
If you want to create the original attack experience, set it to a slower attack time.
■Release
Adjust the release time of the compressor when the signal falls below the threshold.
This allows you to control sustaine.
■ HPF (High Pass Filter)
Use when bass frequencies (less than 120Hz) are needed to prevent compressing as high frequencies.
This will prevent your instrument from ruining the bass dynamics.
This filter is precisely set and is the most useful option if you want to have a bass rich musical instrument or a guitar low range dynamics.
