COMP-01 Compressor
This is a combined compressor and limiter. It will affect the dynamics of the sound, by boosting low levels
and attenuating loud sounds. Use it for keeping levels even (from individual devices or the whole mix), for
adding punch and power to drums, etc.
PEQ2 Two Band Parametric EQ
While the mixer device has basic two-band EQ on each channel, sometimes you may need some more pre-
cise control over the tone color. For this purpose, you can use the PEQ2. This device contains two inde-
pendent parametric equalizers, with controls for frequency, gain and Q value.
Spider Audio Merger & Splitter
This is not an effect device, but a utility. With the Spider Audio you can merge up to four audio input signals
into one output, as well as split one audio input signal into four outputs. This makes audio signal routing
much more flexible and allows for very creative patching.
Spider CV Merger & Splitter
Again, this is not an effect device, but a utility. With the Spider CV you can merge up to four CV input sig-
nals into one CV output, as well as split CV or Gate inputs into several outputs (one of which can be in-
verted). One use for the Spider CV is to split Gate and Note CV to control several instrument devices with
one Matrix.
