This studio-equipment quality compressor specializes in soft compression that does not impair the nuances of the performance, and is compatible with a wide range of compression from soft to hard.

There are five knobs: compression, level, gain, treble, and bass. Without the concepts of threshold, ratio, attack time, and release time, you can intuitively create sounds in three steps: compression setting, level adjustment, and tone correction.

It is equipped with an LED that displays the amount of compression, and you can intuitively grasp the compression status by the timing when the LED lights up, the intensity of the light, and the timing when it goes out.

The level and gain knobs are located after the compression, and you can choose to raise (return) the volume that is reduced by compression cleanly with the level knob, or to raise (return) it with a warmth like that of a vacuum tube with the gain knob. You can also set it to any balance.

The treble and bass are flat at the 12 o'clock position, and by adjusting the treble and bass you can change and tweak the character of the compressed sound to your liking.

The volume can also be boosted using the level and gain knobs, so it can also be used as a booster.

Features of Limetone Audio focus
  • A studio-quality compressor that produces sounds that can be used with any parameter, from soft to hard.
  • By adjusting the Level + Gain, it can also be used as a booster.
  • Knobs and design that allow intuitive operation without being bound by conventional compressor concepts
  • The LED allows you to visually check the compression level.

Limetone Audio focus | Review and reputation

I put the Limetone Audio Focus in the front. If you set it to a light setting, it's fine even if you leave it on all the time.

I am impressed with this good compressor, the first one I've used in a long time.

I got the Limetone Audio focus as soon as it was released. I bought it without even watching the demo video, let alone trying it out, but the sound is amazing! It's not a flashy sound, but it has an incredible power to appeal to the player's sensibilities. The best thing about it is that there are no settings like threshold or ratio. You can decide the sound based on your sensibilities!
