Quick Start Guide
Controls
The FREQUENCY control determines the
(EN)
(1)
lower limit frequency of the sidechain filter,
and covers a range from 100 Hz to 10 kHz.
The BANDWIDTH control determines the
(2)
slope or bandwidth of the sidechain filter.
The bandwidth can be set within a range
from 2.3 to 0.7 octaves, so as to realize even
extremely narrow-band filter settings.
The FILTER control activates the parametric
(3)
sidechain filter. To edit this filter there you
can use the frequency and BW control.
The MONITOR switch establishes a link
(4)
between the sidechain control signal and
the audio output. As it also mutes the audio
input signal the user can pre-monitor the
parametric filter output, which makes it
easier to tune the filter by ear.
Use the THRESHOLD control to set the
(5)
threshold point of the expander/gate
function within a range from BYPASS to
+10 dBu. Signals below the threshold are
reduced in level. When the signal drops
below the threshold, the hold/release
function starts reducing the signal to a level
adjustable with the RANGE/RATIO control.
This "traffic light" LED chain shows the
(6)
current operating mode of the unit:
the "+" LED (red) indicates that the sidechain
signal is below the threshold, the HOLD
LED (yellow) informs you that the hold
circuit/release process has been activated,
while the "-" LED (green) shows that the
sidechain signal is above the threshold.
The HOLD control determines the delay
(7)
applied to the starting point of the release
process, after the signal has dropped below
the threshold. The setting range is 0 to
4 seconds.
The RELEASE control determines the time of
(8)
the release process. This process begins after
the end of the hold phase and ends when
the gain reduction adjusted with the RANGE
control is achieved. The setting range of the
RELEASE control is from 0.05 to 4 seconds.
The MODE switch is used to set the
(9)
operating mode of the respective channel.
When the switch is out, the corresponding
section works as an ultra-fast gate. In this
mode, even percussive signals can be
processed without any signal loss. With the
MODE function on, the IRC expander
(Interactive Ratio Control) is activated.
This interactive control function allows
for the program-dependent expansion of
complex signals.
The RANGE/RATIO control performs a
(10)
dual function: depending on the position
of the MODE switch (i.e. depending on
the operating mode of the unit: gate or
expander), the RANGE/RATIO control
determines the maximum amount of gain
reduction or the expansion curve. In gate
mode, this control adjusts the RANGE
determining the amount of maximum gain
reduction from 0 dB to -80 dB. In expander
mode, it works as a RATIO control setting
the expansion ratio. The ratio function
determines the input vs. output level
ratio, for all signals below the threshold.
The setting range is from 1:1 to 1:4.
The 8-digit GAIN REDUCTION meter
(11)
informs you about the current amount
of gain reduction within a range from
1 to 40 dB.
When you press the COUPLE switch,
(12)
this channel is automatically configured as
a "slave" channel. Its left neighbor becomes
the "master" now controlling both channels
in all their parameters.
