Multiband 5.1
20 DB4 / DB8 MKII Algorithms
Release
Range: 20 ms to 7 sec.
Sets the time it takes for the Expander to release
its attenuation of the signal when the signal ex-
ceeds the Threshold again.
Attack
Range: 0.3 to 100 ms
Sets the time it takes for the Expander to reach
the attenuation specified by the Ratio param-
eter when the signal drops below the Threshold
point.
Meter Zoom
Press Zoom to decrease meter range and have a
more accurate metering.
Bypass Exp.
Press to bypass the Expander section of the MD
5.1 algorithm.

Pressing any parameter will assign this to Fader
6.
“All” parameters
These parameters are equivalent to the “All”
Threshold, Range, Ratio, Attack and Release
parameters.
“LFE” parameters
These parameters are equivalent to the “LFE”
Threshold, Range, Ratio, Attack and Release
parameters.

This page holds all Expander Threshold, Range,
Ratio, Attack and Release parameters for the Lo,
Mid and Hi bands.

Pressing Threshold, Range, Ratio, Attack and
Release keys will immediately assign Lo, Mid,
Hi, All and LFE values for these parameters to
Faders 1 to 4. Be aware that the range of the All
parameter is relative to the settings of the same
parameters in the Expander section.
