FMR Audio RNLA Really Nice Levelling Amplifier
Years ago, many RNC users pined for less invisible compression and requested that FMR Audio offer a more colorful compressor, suitable for bass guitar, drums and other sources in need of added sonic texture. In response, FMR Audio's designer went to the RNC archives and resurrected a version of RNC software that had been rejected for release because it wasn't invisible enough! The result: a compressor reminiscent of some classic opto compressors used to just level the signal rather than tame every transient. To celebrate the RNLA's sonic color, a bright red knob was chosen as a visual metaphor. Although the most recent version ships with a less ostentatious red-striped knob (not shown), the RNLA's sonic color remains bolder than ever...
