@ Threshold level control (THRESHOLD)
This control adjusts the threshold level of the limiter circuit. An excessive input
level will not only cause distortions but might also damage the speakers. The
threshold level of the limiter circuit is set with this control and input signals above
this level will be compressed. The level of the compressed signal will be dis-
played by the REDUCTION indicators Ө . Set this control to a suitable position by
checking the actual sound and the indicators.

@ Output level control (OUTPUT)
Sets the ouput level of the signals which have passed through the limter circuit
and the noise gate circuit. When the DEFEAT switch
@ is pressed ON ( =)
this control determines the output level of the input signal. Turning the control to
the right will increase the output level.
Q Defeat switch (DEFEAT)
This switch determines whether signals from the INPUT jacks will be processed
by the limiter and the noise gate circuits or not.
When this switch is pressed ON ( =) the settings of the GATE level control Ө

will have no effect. In this case the input
signals will be delivered from the OUTPUT jacks with the level set by the
OUT-
PUT level control Ө. When the switch is OFF (mL ) the noise gate and limiter
circuits operate. By pressing and releasing this switch you can check the effect of
limiter circuit and noise gate circuit.
*
Since this switch applies to channel A and B simultaneously you can not
switch the effects ON/OFF separetely for one channel.
The circuits and controls are identical for both channels. Due to this 2-chan-
nel configuration you can use both channels A and B together or connect
only one channel.
