I did some searches on this compressor but little comes back. Is it a
good multi-roll mix and tracking comp?
Thanks in advance.

The stereo width pot is actually very useful too!

Hehe, I read up about it recently, AFAICR the whole thing works in the
MS domain, since TFPro couldnt get the tracking to work in stereo
(L/R) mode. That says says something about ancient technology

Dude, have you ever worked with optos???

Yep, bench engineer decades ago, on Urei stuff, quite difficult to
align, but I prefer them to fets
Matching them is nearly impossible. If you can manage to, a few years later
they will probably drift. Even using LEDs (pretty stable) you still have the
problems of photo resistors aging.

Nothing wrong with ancient technology.

I still prefer relays for switchting analogue audio to the solid state
stuff
You just sometimes have to find a way to make it work.

Ted's idea was brilliant.
Sure was. I wasn't knocking Ted's stuff at all. M+S is very useful at
times (FM stereo radio for instance)

Duh!

What's this all about. Is there really a compressor named Edward?

Yeap!
It's TFPRO's word game (see Edward the CONFESSOR).
Oddly, they've taken it out from their website...

The TF in TFPro is Ted Fletcher, the guy who designed the original
JoeMeek brand compressors. It appears that, concurrent with the JoeMeek
company's complete redisign of their entire product line, Mr. Fletcher
left (or was asked to leave) the company, so he started up his own
TFPro and built a whole mess of boxes that look surprisingly like
original JoeMeek gear

....except they're red instead of green.

The P8 compressor, aka Edward, is like a JoeMeek SC2 with a bunch of
extra features to make it more versatile. Or even less useful,
depending on your opinion.

I've still never seen one or, until JP's post above, heard of anyone
who had.

Ah, OK, now I know what you're talking about.
