Parameters in expander/gate
4 COMPRESSOR Release
This parameter sets the release time of the compressor operation.
AUTO, 47 to 4700 [msec]
The release time is automatically switched according to the input signal level when the
parameter is set to AUTO.
5 COMPRESSOR Side EQ
An equalizer is used for the trigger signal of the compressor operation. This parameter
sets the frequency sensitivity of the compressor operation.
5-1 COMPRESSOR Side EQ Type
This parameter selects the type of equalizer.
OFF/HPF/LPF/BPF/PEAKING
5-2 COMPRESSOR Side EQ Frequency
This parameter selects the frequency of an equalizer.
The frequency of an equalizer cannot be set when the type of
equalizer is OFF.
200/250/315/400/500/630/800/1k/1.25k/1.6k/2k/2.5k/3.15k/4k/5k/6.3k/8k/
10k/12.5k/16k [Hz]
5-3 COMPRESSOR Side EQ Level
The level of an equalizer is set when the type of equalizer is PEAKING.
It cannot be set when the type of equalizer is other than PEAKING.
–10/–8/–6/–4/–2/0/+2/+4/+6/+8/+10 [dB]
∗ Q of a bandpass filter is 4.0 fixed.
∗ Q of a peaking filter is 1.0 fixed.
∗ The sync switching in the three parameters of an equalizer is collectively carried
out by "Type."
6 COMPRESSOR Threshold
This parameter sets the level in which the compressor operation is initiated
0 to –60 [dBFS] (in units of 1 dBFS).
7 COMPRESSOR Ratio
This parameter sets the compression ratio of compressor operation.
1.0 to –α [:1]
8 COMPRESSOR Soft Knee Level
This parameter sets the compressor operation, that is, the range of change in soft knee.
Compression is initiated from the level lower than the set threshold level in proportion
to the soft knee level.
As the set value becomes lower, the soft knee comes nearer the "hard knee" .
1 to 18 [dB] (in units of 1 dB).
9 EXPANDER Trigger
This parameter determines the trigger signal of expander/gate operation. It also can
set the stereo link operation.
SEPARATE
LINK (MIX)
LINK (CH-1)
LINK (CH-2)
The two-channel signals input to a main block are used as a
trigger signal of each channel.
The signal obtained when the two-channel signals input to a
main block are mixed 50% at a time is used as a trigger signal.
The CH-1 signal input to a main block is used as trigger
signals in both processing channels.
The CH-2 signal input to a main block is used as trigger
signals in both processing channels.
