Page 4: Introduction
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 Introduction The 2264A LB Limiter / Compressor facilities and performance are similar to those of a 2254/R Limiter Compressor. The main advantages of the 2264A LB are it's smaller size and compatibility with Lunchbox... -
Page 5: Front Panel Controls
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 Front Panel Controls LIM THR, REC, LIM I/O (Limiter Section) This is a 3-function group of controls comprising the following functions: LIMit THReshold The inner grey knob, variable from +4dBm to +15dBm, controls the threshold at which the limiting effect takes place. -
Page 6: Bypass / In
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 BYPASS / IN When in BYPASS this switch connects the Input directly to the Output, in effect bypassing all of the unit's circuitry. When set to the IN position, the unit is in circuit. -
Page 7: 2264 Operation
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 2264 Operation LIMITING – ATTACK TIME This unit has a limiting attack time of 4msec. This slow attack time is used on programme material of moderately percussive nature, such as a solo piano. With this attack time a very narrow dynamic range can be achieved by feeding high levels into the limiter while using a low limit level. -
Page 8: Compress Ratio
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 COMPRESS RATIO Five compression ratios are provided: • 1.5:1 • 2:1 • 3:1 • 4:1 • 6:1 The characteristic is shaped such that the onset of compression is smooth and progressive, the true ratio being established within about 6dB above the threshold point. -
Page 9: Limiter & Compressor In Combination
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 Limiter & Compressor in combination When both of the LIMIT and COMPRESS switches are set to IN, the sidechains controlling limiting and compressing will be operative. Under these conditions, the compressor is effective below +8dBm only, because at this point, the limiting action will take over complete control. -
Page 10: Insert Mode
2264ALB Limiter / Compressor Issue 1 Insert Mode It is possible to use the 2264A LB in conjunction with the 1073LB Microphone Pre-amplifier module, with the 2264A LB functioning as an inserted processor within the 1073LB. To enable this mode, the DIP-switch settings on the rear of both modules need to be changed. -
Page 11: Configuration Examples
Issue 1 Insert Mode Configuration Examples There are four possible configurations possible when using multiple AMS Neve units in Insert Mode. Either a 2-way or 3-way INS LINK cable is required depending on the configuration. The signal processing order is changed by physically moving the units within the rack. -
