Page 5: Mains Connection
Because the outputs are electronically floating, terminal 2(+) or 3(-) may be grounded without fear of short-circuiting the driveramps. Always ground the shield of your cable at the Dymand side only, by connecting it to terminal 1 of the XLR socket. -

Page 7: Front Panel Description
Dateq DNA-Dymand Manual Operation Frontpanel description The Dymand has two identical channels, channel 1 and 2. These channels have identical controls (except for 'stereo-link'), therefore only one channel will be considered. 'ON'-Switch This switch switches between 'bypass' and 'on'. When it illuminates green it indicates the device is on. - Page 8 THRESHOLD: The thresholdlevel determines the level at which the compressor will start to work. Below this level the relationship between inputlevel and outputlevel is 1:1, above this level the slope is determined by the ratio setting. The threshold control on the Dymand is adjustable from -20 dB to +20 dB.
- Page 9 KEYING: The Dymand has a key-input, this input can be switched to detection by means of the key- switch. This function can be used for ducking etc. For ducking connect the music to input and output, and the voice-over to the key-input.
- Page 10 Dateq DNA-Dymand Manual EXPANDER The Dymand is primarily a compressor, but it also has an extra function; a downward-expander. The effect of expansion is the reverse of the effect of compression, it increases dynamics. The downward-expander in the Dymand works with an adjustable thresholdlevel and a fixed ratio. The basic function of this expander is to attenuate the signal below the thresholdlevel.

In this way the Dymand will be less conscious of low frequency contents of the signal. The principle of the low-cut filter is that the Dymand, like your ears, will be less conscious of low frequencies. -
Page 12: Level Settings
Level settings The Dymand can operate at several I/O levels, i.e.; +6 dBu, +4 dBu, 0 dBu and a variable setting. The levelsettings are only valid for input and output, key and sidechain operate at 0 dBu, but can be modified if necessary. -
