Representing a new generation of dynamic processors that can appeal both to skilled users and those with limited time, the DL241 Auto Compressor from Drawmer is a dual-channel compressor with comprehensive auto-program features and dual-mono or stereo linked operation. Sporting a program adaptive gate/expander circuit as well as a sophisticated, automatic soft-knee compression circuit, the DL241 makes it easy to accommodate any signal or usage scenario without compromising control, as each section also features manual override and variable control over functions like attack, release, and ratio.

Adjustable peak levels allow you to avoid excessive peaks and unpleasant distortion through Zero Response Time, Zero Overshoot circuitry, and the input levels can also be adjusted, from +4 to -10 dB. With the bright LED meters, you can easily view your levels at a glance. This unit includes an AC power cord for immediate use.

Comprehensive LED meters give at-a-glance indications of gain reduction, and input/output signal level gain reduction from 1 to -30 dB is shown simultaneously with signal level from 20 to +15 dB. Other single LEDs indicate function status of gating action, auto mode, bypass, peak limiting, stereo linking, and power on.

Zero Response Time, Zero Overshoot circuitry provides an absolute limit to the peak level of the output signal, adjustable from 0 to +16 dB above system level. When set to the required level, any excessive peaks will be stopped and the gain will be momentarily decreased if necessary.

The Zero Response Time is essential to avoid unpleasant distortion when mastering for CD or sending any signal to digital equipment. Zero Response Time means that the DL241 provides complete protection from even the fastest and shortest signal spikes (overloads), making the unit also ideally suited for speaker system protection in sound reinforcement applications.

A fully balanced hard-wire bypass connects the input directly to the output allowing the signal to pass through the unit with no power applied. In bypass, the VU level meter displays the input signal.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Is this transformer based? Does this not allow phantom power to pass though?

A: No, the Kopul HMX-2 Humbuster - Dual-Channel Hum Eliminator with XLR and 1/4" Connectors is a passive device that does not pass phantom power. It is not intended for microphone use, it is to be used with instrument or line level devices.

Q: 2. What voltage are the various units requiring. ie to use a battery pack where there i s no power. ?

A: This specification is not specified by the manufacturer. Please contact PIXIO directly for additional details: ccc@movensee.com

Q: 3. Will this card input both HDMI channels at the same time?

A: I have the Quad, which is essentially the same thing, and we use it to live-stream 4 simultaneous cameras. So, using that assumption, it'll do so very very well. Very happy with ours.

Q: 4. How long does it run on battery power? My battery runs out very quickly, after 1-2 hours((

A: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1460331-REG/comica_audio_cvm_ax3_dual_channel_xlr_audio_mixer.html/specs Comica Audio CVM-AX3 Specs Battery Life Phantom Power Off: Up to 40 Hours Phantom Power On: Up to 6 Hours

Q: 5. Does this work with Laptop output capture into this card?

A: If your laptop has a PCIe x4 (PCIe 2.0) slot in it, or if you use a PCI chassis with support for a PCIe x4 (PCIe 2.0), the Magewell Pro Capture Dual HDMI Card (2 Channel), would be able to work.

Q: 6. what is channel A B C D ?

A: Channel A,B,C or D refers the the frequency the mixrophones transmit on. If buying multipe systems you should buy different frequencies.

Q: 7. Can OBS pick this up as two seperate video sources?

A: Yes it can.

Q: 8. Without the 5 degree spot meter attachment, that costs over $100, what is the angle of measure for reflected light? Is it 40 degrees like the Sekonic L308?

A: The KFM-1100 meter unit is an incident-light reading meter.To use for reflected readings, one of/or two additional attachments need to be purchased: KFM-400 attachment which gives a 40degree angle, or a spotfinder attachment which gives 5 degrees (refer to page 10 of instruction manual)

Q: 9. If the beacons and robot are permanently installed in a room and have been centered once do you have to center them every time you power off and back on?

A: Once your beacons and robot are setup for one location, you will not have to center the units again. You will only need to center the units once the robot and beacons are moved to a different location.

Q: 10. This says 60Hz, is there a model that will work in Pal 50Hz countries?

A: B&H offers only the North American version. We do not offer a different version for use overseas.

[Black] I bought this compressor, at the recommendation of a friend, to level out the extreme voice volume fluctuation of my pastor. I have been extremely pleased with the result...exactly what I wanted. The pastor can now be clearly heard all throughout the chapel without me having to try and manually adjust his volume ups and downs. It takes a little time to set this up to get just the right wireless mic input into the compressor, but the result is noise free and evenly adjusted volume. On the recording, I hear no noise and the quality is excellent. I received instant comments from many worshippers on the improvement. I could not be happier!!

[Black] I've been lusting after a physical LA2A for years. I actually first used one in the early 1970's in a radio station, their original market. I've tried a number of plugins, some of which aren't bad. But the weird mixture of tubes, transformers and a light bulb (panel in this case) is just hard to beat. Like all great audio gear, you may cease to notice it when it's there, but you'll truly miss it when it's not there. I have a number of wildly dynamic singers in the studio, and this just works the magic to make their vocals sit in the mix. And it makes those same vocals bigger sounding at the same time. Is it the best LA2A clone out there? I don't know since I can't test it against all the rest. But it's darn good. BTW, let me put to rest any fears about build quality, etc. This is my second (and won't be my last) piece of Warm Audio kit. Absolutely no issues with the way these beasts arrive and work. Possibly, outside of acoustic treatment, the best investment I've ever made in my studio.

[9 W] I was swapping XLR cables among different audio equipment feeding my studio monitors. I thought about getting or building an a/b box but after researching I learned about the Drawmer monitor controller. Now I just press buttons instead of pulling and tripping over cables. I also bought a Blackstar bluetooth receiver and added it on the back of the Drawmer. Now I can switch among my iphone on the Blackstar, my phono equipment, and my DAW audio interface. And should I add another set or two of speakers, I can. It's great. And so is B&H.

[9 W] We're using it to compress our levels for live streaming and dvd recording. The audio is clean and noise free. The compressor was easy to setup. Our pastor speaks with lots of variation. He can be quite loud and then softens towards the end. The DBX is a great compressor to moderate his volume and keep it consistent.

[Metal] I wanted to try a compressor to pick up my low tones and knock down some of the peaks while singing live. The only other compressor I had used was a 1 knob on the XENYX1832 mixer. I paired this with a Pro MPA2 pre-amp also an ART product, and been very pleased with it for vocals and an electric guitar. I had been looking around at compressors for a while, and finally just ordered it up. I am glad I did and would do it again. No complaints at all, and have recommended it to my friends already. This was my first purchase from B&H, but will not be my last. Fast delivery even though it was Christmas time. Packaging was also very good.

[Black] We are using this unit with two wireless lavalier mics used by trainers presenting in hotel ballrooms and consider it a bargain for how much performance improvement it has yielded.


After watching a few YouTube videos I was able to configure some defaults for vocals and then fine tune using the meters and my ears.


We have much better control now and fewer requests to make it louder but also not feed back while the person is standing in front of the PA while also making it not so loud while the presenter is shouting GET READY TO ROCK AND ROLLLLLL! or whatever at the beginning of the event.

[9 W] This device works great in leveling out our audio, and gets rid of the low level room noise. Our podcast post-processing has gone to almost zero.

[Metal] This compressor is exactly what I was looking for. Transparent, smooth, and powerful. The double-knee system is unique and sounds terrific. The auto-attack & release are so good I never turn them off. Lastly, the ability to add subtle harmonics to the output gain adds that little bit of glisten.
