Add punch and musical control to your sound with our analog VCA compressor. From subtle glue on buses to aggressive transient shaping, Cascade brings your tracks to life with smooth dynamics and rich analog character, making it perfect for mastering, live performances, and precise mix control.
Its fully discrete VCA cell and 100% discrete analog signal path ensure transparent dynamic control with musical THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) characteristics, preserving clarity and definition even under heavy compression.

Features
Unique VCA Circuitry
Unique VCA Circuitry
Engineered to minimize self-noise while delivering punchy, musical compression with the vibrant sonic character of classic 70s/80s consoles.
Stereo/Mono Operation
Stereo/Mono Operation
Allows for both stereo processing and mono configuration with left input being normaled to right.
Attack
Attack
Switchable attack times — how fast the compressor reacts to the signal.
Release
Release
Switchable release times — how fast the gain returns to normal.
Ratio
Ratio
Selects the compression ratio.
Threshold
Threshold
Defines the level at which compression begins.
Make-Up Gain
Make-Up Gain
Restores level lost during compression, offering gain to rebalance your mix or drive the output into subtle harmonic color for an enhanced final sound.
Balance (Dry/Wet)
Balance (Dry/Wet)
Parallel compression is easily dialed in via the blend control, making CASCADE an essential tool for modern mixing and mastering workflows.
Gain Reduction
Gain Reduction
Displays the amount of gain reduction applied, giving you clear visual feedback of your compression's impact on the signal.
Level Metering
Level Metering
See the levels or output signal so have more control before hitting next in the chain module. Modular and Line-Level Compatibility. Although designed to excel with modular-level signals, Horizon is also compatible with standard line-level inputs.

SC Hipass
The sidechain circuit includes a switchable high-pass filter to avoid unwanted pumping from bass-heavy content.
Bypass
Bypass
Compare processed and clean signals.
