Buzz Audio first manufactured the SOC-1.1 in 1999 and it brought to the market an optical (light dependent resistor) compressor with more user control than what was available at the time (LA series for example). The unit was immensely popular and Buzz built hundreds of them, but the construction was a bit messy and time consuming, so, the SOC-1.1 was retied and replaced with the Buzz Audio Velox Optical Compressor!

It also includes a BASS filter into the side chain to reduce the sensitivity of the compressor at low frequencies.
