Unit

Unit of measurement for the delay. Note that selecting unit of measurement for length (mm, m, inch, feet,...)

the amount of delay (distance value) will depend on the air temperature as indicated in the “environmental

settings” (see “Setup page”).

Compressor

Fig.45 Input compressor block: parameters and visualization.

Each input channel has a dynamic processor placed after the input level control, which can work as

compressors (“Compressor Mode”) or as limiters (“Limiter Mode”). When a dynamic processor is enabled the

graph shows the dynamic curve, i.e. the relation between the input level and output level.

On

This parameter enables or disables the dynamic processor.

Limit

This parameter enables or disables the “Limiter Mode”: enabling this mode the compressor acts as a limiter

(with a ratio ∞:1).

Thresh

Threshold level for the compressor/limiter; below the threshold non compression/limiting occurs, above the

threshold the processor start to compress or to limit the signal as indicated in the dynamic curve. The

threshold level is referred to the maximum dynamic for the input signal, so Thresh=+21dB means

“compressor disabled (over the maximum signal level)”.

Atk

Attack time for the compressor: determines how quickly the compressor reacts to signals above the

threshold.
