Based on a MANLEY STEREO “VARIABLE MU”* (US) serial # MSLC61536 Attack has SLOW and FAST at max and min settings, Release has FAST, MF (Medium Fast), MED, MS (Medium Slow) and SLOW settings The MANLEY VARIABLE MU® LIMITER has become a real standard in Mastering studios. "Mu" is tube talk for gain. It works by using the "remote cut-off" (re-biasing) of a vacuum tube in order to achieve compression (like the Fairchild 670).The COMPRESS mode is soft-knee (1.5 to 1) while the sharper knee LIMIT mode starts at 4 to 1 and moves to 20 to 1 when limiting over 12dB. The knee softens when more limiting is applied.
