The Korena take

ART’s SCL2 is a two-channel dynamics processor that combines compression, limiting, expansion, and gating for live-sound work. It can control volume spikes and potential distortion, while its gate is intended to tighten drum and vocal microphone signals. Set it for subtle compression or hard limiting, then use adjustable attack and release controls that adapt to the audio being processed. Full auto mode is available, and separate gain-reduction meters keep each channel visible.
