are applied to the final stage of the master output.
* The master comp and EQ effect is not applied to the DIRECT
OUT jacks.
* If the routing setting (p. 44) Master Out is set to "DIRECT, " master
compressor and master EQ effects are not applied to the sound
that is output from the MASTER OUT jacks.

List" (PDF).
Using the master comp
5 When used as a compressor, this allows you to raise the overall
loudness of the drums by compressing brief peaks in the sound.
This lets the sound project better, without being buried in the
mix by the other instruments.
5 When used as a comp-limiter, this lets you increase the
recording level while limiting the maximum input to the
recording device.
5 If you're using a small monitor amp, you can use this effect as a
limiter so that the peaks of the drum sound are limited, making
the sound less likely to distort.
Using the master EQ
5 This lets you adjust the tonal character by boosting or cutting
each of the four bands (LOW/MID1/MID2/HIGH).
5 You can also use this to make compensations in the tone when
using the master comp.
