Front Panel Controls

1. Power Switch
This switch is used to turn the unit on and off. When the unit is on, the integrated
Power Indicator LED is lit.
2. Limiter (Threshold) Controls
This knob provides continuous control of the Threshold level of the integrated
compression circuitry, over a range of –40dB to +20dB.
Soft knee compression is applied to signals which exceed the threshold setting by
up to 10dB.
Hard knee compression is applied to signals which exceed the threshold setting
by more than 10dB.
3. Ratio Control
This knob provides continuous control of the degree of compression applied once
the threshold level has been exceeded, over a range of 1:1 to
corresponds to zero compression. A ratio of 10:1 indicates that once the input
signal has exceeded the threshold level, an additional 10dB of input level will
result in 1dB of output level. See Fig. 1 below.
