Comp
The COMP page features compressors for the high and low channels, with gain reduc-
tion (GR) meters, compressor curves, and output level meters.
The gain reduction (GR) meters display the amount of gain reduction being applied by
the Compressors. The compressor curves display the effect of the Compressors. The
output meters display the level of the output signals.
