Bus Rider is a stereo multiband EQ and dynamics processor designed for end-of-chain processing, mastering, submixes and individual stereo sources. It combines a three-band isolator EQ, multiband compressor and lookahead limiter within a single module, providing both mix-finishing tools and hands-on performance control.

The three-band Isolator EQ provides up to +12dB of boost and complete attenuation of each band, with adjustable low and high crossover frequencies. A Low Mono function sums the low-frequency band to mono, while a dedicated Low Cut CV input provides voltage control over the low-band EQ level.

The multiband dynamics section provides independent threshold and ratio controls for the low, mid and high bands. Processing then feeds the lookahead limiter, which offers adjustable input gain, ceiling and release, alongside saturation and hard-clipping controls for the mid and high-frequency bands. The limiter uses a 1.5ms lookahead buffer and provides selectable stereo detector linking.

A three-position switch selects between EQ, dynamics and limiter control pages, with colour-coded LEDs indicating the active controls. The LED meter provides overall level indication, limiter gain reduction and parameter feedback. Nine user presets allow processing configurations to be stored and recalled, while an assignable CV input provides external modulation of selected parameters.

All processing sections remain active regardless of the currently displayed control page, and the complete processing chain can be bypassed using the I/O button.
