  • Page 4: Installation

    - The appliance should not be operated near any water or in a location where moisture might be present. - Always connect the mains earth to the unit. If the 1973 is to be continuously moved from one location to another, we suggest using additional support in the rack at the rear of the unit. POWER CONNECTION The unit will have been supplied with a power cable suitable for domestic power outlets in your country.

    A typical setup for connecting the 1973 would be by the use of a Y-lead between the two input and output xlr’s on the rear of the 1973 and insert point for the respective channel of the desk - this would be repeated for both channels.

  • Page 6: Chapter 2 - Control Description

    CONTROL DESCRIPTION The 1973 shares similar parameters to a standard full band compressor, such as the Drawmer 1968, the difference being that the stereo signal is split into low, mid and high bands, each one processed separately without affecting the other, and then summed back into a stereo signal again before output.
  • Page 7 During compression the signal is attenuated, gain may be required to produce the required output level. In addition, as the 1973 is multi-band, the three gain controls are used to adjust the levels of each band to obtain a desirable overall signal, or to bring out the bass, treble etc.
  • Page 8 Note: To see the input level on the VU meters the Bypass switch should be on, as the meters display the level found at the output. Power: Off - On Turns the 1973 on and off. This switch is hard wired and so when off the 1973 will draw no power DRAWMER 1973 O PERATOR’S ANUAL...
