LFE Limiter
Threshold
Range:
-12 to +3 dB
-6 to + 3 in 0.1 dB increments
-12 to -6 in 0.5 dB increments
Brickwall limiter for the LFE channel. Threshold
is always relative to 0 dBFS. LED on each Output
meter indicates when limiter is active.
Release
Range: 0.01 to 1.00 seconds
Release time for the Limiter.
Ceiling
Range: 0 to -0.10 dB in 0.01 dB steps.
Fine-tuning parameter setting the Ceiling for the
Limiter.
The Ceiling parameter prevents the Output sig-
nal from exceeding the adjusted Limiter Thresh-
old. It can be used to “hide” overloads to down-
stream equipment, but it does not remove the
distortion associated with an over.

Trim Levels
Output trims
Range: 0 dB to -12 dB in 0.1 dB steps
Level trim of the Output channels. Only the fader
is placed after these trims. These parameters
can be used to trim the levels of the monitoring
system, but please note that it also affects the
recorded material.
Mute
Allows muting of each Output-channel.
Output Fader
Range:
Off to 0 dB
Off to -40 dB: in 3 dB steps,
-40 to 0 dB in 0.5 dB steps
Output fader for all 6 Outputs. Can be controlled
with the optional TC Master Fader connected to
the GPI Input.
Compare
Easy switchable On/Off compare function for
the entire MD 5.1 algorithm. This is not a bypass
function as you are able to set a Compare Level
(see below).
Compare Level
Range: -20 to 0 dB
This function allows you to set a Compare level
of the processed signal to match the unpro-
cessed signal for better A/B listening.
