Pendulum Audio DS-500 De-Esser 500 Series Module
The DS-500 is a single channel, non-tube version of the De-esser in the Pendulum Quartet Tube Recording Channel. It uses the same highly selective inductive detector and opto-inductive notch filter as the the de-es- ser in the Quartet, so it has the same charcteristics, and very fast response. By pairing it with a unity gain class A solid-state line stage, the DS-500 retains the transpar- ent character of the de-esser action, while keeping the signal path clean and uncolored. The DS-500 is fully compatible with any rack that adheres to the API spec.
Features:
- Identical to the De-esser in the award-winning Quartet Recording Channel
- Opto-Inductive notch filter using proprietary fast opto cell.
- Highly selective inductive detector
- Class A solid-state signal path
