Vintage Dynamics

Vintage Compressor Parameters:
CMP Knee Rotary The smooth transition ('soft knee') at the compressor threshold can be
CMP Knee on/off Switches the compressor's 'soft knee' on or off.
CMP MIX Rotary If the CMP MIX function is on, this parameter allows mixing or blending of
CMP MIX on/off 'on' activates the CMP MIX function; 'off' selects the compressed signal
3-32 Parameters
The main differences between the vintage and standard dynamics sections is
that the vintage dynamics are intended to be used as an effect by itself rather
than being transparent. Its compressor has some additional parameters com-
pared with the standard dynamics section, but no hold function instead; there
is no limiter available, and the expander and gate sections cannot be used at
the same time.
Below, only the parameters different from the ones of the standard dynamics
section are described.
adjusted, the window size can be set between 0 and 60 dB.
the dry (original) and the wet (compressed) signals. 0% setting: dry signal
only; 100% setting: wet signal only.
only.
When the CMP MIX function is set to 'on', the ratio of the dry (original) to
the wet (compressed) signal depends on the selected mix ratio. In other words,
mixing between the original and the compressed signals is possible.
