This selection is depending on the Program Configuration or Channel Mode (SYSTEM > Setup) of your system. Channel [V1 / V2] Depending on whether a stereo or multichannel source is selected under 'Program / Section', the appropriate channels will be available for individual control.
- Page 34 V*AP Signature / Max Gain (dB) [0 … 12] Spectral Signature does not work with an absolute level reference. Its frequency response is based on level differences between bands only. Thus a signature is only represented on a relative graph showing the level positions related to the neighboring bands.
- Page 35 V*AP Adaption Speed [0 / 2 Mid / 3 / 4 Fast] This parameter affects the time taken for the bands to reach their target values. Fast settings even out differences between sources, but can lead to audible transitions. They are well suited for single channel signals, for example to even out sound differences due to movement in front of a microphone.

This allows the system to process fast transients without missing even the steepest peaks. As the live audio signal must be delayed for two milliseconds, this lag needs to be considered when measuring overall latency.
- Page 38 This is the 'classic' approach of earlier Junger Audio compressor designs. The Downward mode is the more common way of dynamic range compression. Here all signals above threshold are reduced according to the ratio while all signals below threshold remain untouched.
- Page 39 V*AP Make-Up To set up the desired output level of the compressor, Make-Up Gain (or attenuation) needs to be applied. This is a simple and static output level adjustment without any dynamic content. In Auto mode the amount of Make-up Gain is automatically determined depending on the threshold and ratio settings.

Page 46: Setup Gui - Events - Overview
The V*AP has two different action types – "Event Actions" and "Bypass Actions" An action runs like a flip-book inside the V*AP. This powerful technology spans from simply recalling a certain parameter over narrator specific parameter combinations (household name: "Preset") to the complete reconfiguration of the V*AP including all signal routing, processing parameters and so forth. -

Network trigger are based on the EmBER+ protocol from Co. l-s-b http://www.l-s-b.de/uk The V*AP receives such trigger over the TCP/IP network. The triggers are issued by a device that has implemented the EmBER+ protocol (e.g. VSM server). You may assign these triggers to virtual panels as well as physical (e.g. -
