Power amplifier with digital audio management

Release time
is defined as the time it takes the limiter to increase the signal gain by a defined value.
Normally, this value will be defined at 20dB.
Since the SMP_QX Power Amplifiers feature 2 separate limiters (RMS Limiter plus Peak Limiter),
there will be an interference (in dynamics), when both limiters work on the same threshold level.
!
Such extreme settings should only be chosen to fully avoid any peaks from exceeding a certain thres
hold level.
Since the RMS Limiter be fully configured by the user, it may serve to determine maximum
output levels of sound systems.
Examples:
Protection of loudspeaker systems
To keep within certain sound pressure levels in discotheques etc.

Default Values
The Peak - Limiter works against a fixed threshold-level, attack- and release time.
These levels may not be manipulated by the user.
The peak limiter will protect the power amplifier from distortion (Clipping)
The threshold level of the peak limiters is set at 2,7dBu in relation to the peak signal level.
The maximum output level of the power amp will be reached at an input level of 2,7dBu (rms).

Low-A Delay
Low-A Delay
Delay = 0.000m
Delay = 0.000m
Default value of delay is 0.000m.
In the given example, Delay was changed to 24.330m, using PM1 and PM2.
PM1 will alter the value in large steps. PM2 will alter the value in small steps.
Delay units may be read (set) to distance (m) or time (ms).
Delay range is: 0....288meters.
