Dynamics Processor Meters - Yamaha Programmable Mixer 01 User Manual

KEY IN — this is used to select the processor trigger source. (i.e. the
signal that triggers, or activates the processor). The current setting is
highlighted. Other settings flash when selected. Settings are activated
by pressing [ENTER].
The options are:
KEY IN Source
SELF Same as PATCH
CH1–CH16 An input channel: post-EQ, pre-fader
SEND3 SEND3
SEND4 SEND4
ST-L Stereo output left channel
ST-R Stereo output right channel
IN — this parameter appears only when PATCH is set to STEREO. It
determines whether a dynamics processor is patched into just the
left/odd channel (L), right/even channel (R), or both (BOTH).
Note: The ON/OFF, PATCH, KEY IN, and IN parameters are not stored
in dynamics programs. They are, however, stored in mix scenes.

Dynamics Processor Meters

The amount of processor gain reduction (GR) and the output signal
levels are metered on the COMP LCD function, as shown below. Gain
reduction is the amount by which a signal's level is reduced. The out-
put signal levels work from bottom-to-top as conventional level
meters. The GR level meter, however, works from top-to-bottom.
For compression, limiting, and ducking, the GR meter operates when
the processor is active (i.e. has been triggered by the KEY IN signal)
and it shows the amount of signal level reduction. For a gate, however,
the processor is active when the input signal is below the threshold.
So the GR meter operates when the input signal is below the threshold
and also when there is no input signal.
Dynamics Processor Meters
Can be pre-fader or post-fader.

Patches" on page 74.
