History of the Omnipressor with Eventide's Founder, Richard Factor (Gear Club Podcast Excerpt)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 вер 2019
- Introduced in the early 1970s, the Omnipressor® was the first dynamics effects processor of any kind. Invented by Eventide's founder, Richard Factor, the Omnipresssor, made a host of effects possible. It featured variable control of all aspects of dynamic modification. It also introduced the notion of the 'side chain' and foretold techniques that today we take for granted like 'look ahead' processing.
In this excerpt from Gear Club Podcast, hosts John Agnello & Stewart Lerman chat with Richard about the Omnipressor's history & conception. It's a little known fact that the Omnipressor was partly born in some way from the Richard Nixon Watergate tape.

Very nice and interesting talk indeed, thank you so much.
Here because im currently using the Omni within the H90. Eventide Kicking Ass!!!
I used to repair those in the factory, many many moons ago...
as a once upon a time fellow employee (Judy Friedsam) , I did quite a bit of soldering. Hey Jeff, hope you've been well !
@@judeworth938 Hey Judy! I'll tell Tony A. you got in touch!
@@jeffsasmor5688 I saw Tony years ago at a NAMM show. I'm still in touch with Robert & John..and on occasion, Richard. Loving all Eventide's plugins ! Hope you're well Jeff !
yaow if you guys made a console and put the O pressor on every channel
why isnt reverse compression, and expanding NOT the same operation... I must be missing a fine detail.
Expansion expands the dynamic range, loud gets louder, soft gets softer. Compression shrinks the dynamic range. Loud gets a bit softer and soft gets a bit louder. Reverse compression is extreme compression. Loud gets much much softer and soft gets much much louder and the effect on the dynamics of some sounds is perceived as if the audio is being played backwards.
