DL221 OPERATORS MANUAL

LED BAR DISPLAY is a dual function facility which measures output level (input level if

bypass is selected) or gain-reduction, selectable by the display
switch.

NB
i.

The VU meter and threshold controls are calibrated to show 0VU at +4dB

ii.

In the gain reduction mode, all the red LED’s are very slightly illuminated at all
times. This is quite normal and does no indicate a fault condition.

STEREO LINK

couples the control circuits of both compressors to prevent image
shifting when treating stereo material on a final mix. The peak
limiters can also be used if desired but they remain independent.
Operational controls should be set the same on both channels when
linked.

Two DL120's may also be linked externally for stereo operation. See DL120 connection
details.

SIDE-CHAIN EQUALISATION connections.
