Mix

The

Mix control, which blends between the processed (wet) and unprocessed (dry) signals, exists on all BFD Eco FX. By default, all FX are set

to 100% wet, but this control allows you to adjust the wet/dry mix as required.
While it is not common to see a wet/dry mix control on compressors, it is available on all BFD Eco FX including its dynamics processors. It can
be very useful for parallel compression on a single channel.
