DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR
The input compressor provides a means for controlling the
dynamic range of input signals. It is a feed-forward type, which
performs the compression after the Input Level Meter. The Input
Compressor’s effect on input gain is metered by the Input
Dynamic Cut/Boost Meter.
Seven parameters control this feature:
On/Off
Turns this feature on or off
Compression Ratio
Determines how many dB the input level must change for a 1dB
change in output level. Dynamic variations in the input signal
will be reduced by a factor equal to the compression ratio.
Control range is 2:1 to 32:1
Threshold
Specifies the average signal level (after side-chain processing)
above which the compressor will begin to reduce gain.
Control range is from -80 to +20dB in 1dB steps
