MD 5.1
88
System 6000 MKII Algorithms
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.

expander – All LFE page
MD 5.1 algorithm – expander – All LFE page
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.

Pressing any parameter will assign this to Fader 
6.
This page holds all Expander Threshold, Range, 
Ratio, Attack and Release parameters for the Lo, 
Mid and Hi bands.

MD 5.1 algorithm – compressor – comp page
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.
Threshold
Range: -25 dB to 20 dB (in 0.5 dB steps)
Sets the Threshold level at which the Compres-
sor starts to operate. The Threshold parameter 
relates to the Reference Level setting.
