Page 5: Input & Output Section
Figure 2: Input & Output Section 4.1 Input Jacks DYNAMICENGINE features two 3.5 mm balanced Inputs Jacks (1). The balanced inputs can be exploited to accomodate the interconnections between Eurorack and non-Eurorack gear (e.g. API500, Rack 19”, Desktop...). Standard 3.5 mm mono patch cables can be used. - Page 6 mm mono patch cables can be used. All inputs feature a led that monitors the signal intensity after the External Side-chain Gain stage.

5.3 Ratio & Knee Control Figure 5: Ratio & Knee Control The Ratio control (8) sets the amount of compression that is applied to the signal of the corresponding channel; it ranges from 1:1 (i.e. no compression) to Limit (i.e. limiter). The Knee (9) switch sets the slope of the compression applied to the signal;... -

5.6 Side-chain Cut-off Control Figure 8: Side-chain Cut-off Control The Side-chain Cut-off (14) control sets the cutoff frequency of a 1st order hi-pass that filters the side-chain signal; it ranges from 20 Hz to 235 Hz. When the Side- Chain Filter (15) switch is ON, the hi-pass filtering is applied to the side-chain signal. -
