Description:

Since 1968, FET-style compression has been a dominant force in countless recordings, remaining one of the most popular processing techniques to this day. Known for its lightning-fast attack and release times, it has become an essential tool for audio engineers.

ANALOG SOUND, DIGITAL CONTROL

Same legendary fet compression

_MIMAS – Powered by Carnhill Transformers at the Core of Its Sound.

The most important feature of _MIMAS is its fully balanced analog design (IN/OUT) with +24dBu of headroom. Despite offering digital control, the signal path remains entirely analog, delivering the authentic FET compression sound that professionals expect.

Four Ratio Settings and Legendary “All Buttons In”.

_MIMAS offers selectable classic ratios of 4:1 and 8:1 for compression, and 12:1 and 20:1 for limiting.

For those needing a more aggressive compression style, the “All Buttons In” mode is ready to use. And just to be clear—it’s an analog compressor, so the “All Buttons In” mode is fully analog too!

Saturation Mode: One Knob to Add Color and Character Without Compression

Classic 1176 compressors allow users to disable compression while still adding warmth and character to the signal. _MIMAS follows this tradition but takes it a step further by using a single knob to control the amount of saturation applied to the signal, making it easier to achieve the desired effect without needing to adjust both the input and output knobs.

500 Series and ng500 Series Compatible

Regardless of its additional features, _MIMAS remains fully compatible with the 500 series standard(*). Digital functionality can be activated via the front panel mini USB socket.

The ng500 — Next Generation 500 series – is a physical extension of the standard 500 series, making _MIMAS fully compatible with the _TITAN frame, allowing control of all devices in the chassis through a single USB or Ethernet cable.

Hardware A/B

Even when using _MIMAS as a purely analog signal processor, you can effortlessly switch between two parallel settings with the simple press of a button, offering quick and seamless control.

Total Recall and Plugin Control

Along with its classic analog compressor, _MIMAS brings one of the most highly demanded features in the audio industry — TOTAL RECALL.

Full plugin control via VST2, VST3, AU, AAX, and AAX DSP makes _MIMAS compatible with most, if not all, major DAWs.

Total integration with your DAW of choice will transform your workflow forever!

Analog Automation

We’ve all wanted to adjust device settings based on different song sections, and now it’s easier than ever! Simply draw automation lines in your DAW, and your analog device will follow seamlessly.

Plus, you can use the four touch-sensitive encoders to record automation directly into your DAW, ensuring precise control over your device settings.
