2-channel compressor/limiter For protecting vocal microphones or dynamically played instruments against overload for equalizing level fluctuations for emphasising a signal and for transferring analogue recordings onto digital sound carriers (volume maximisation due to dynamic compression). For each channel:• 8-step LED level display switchable to input signal or output signal• 12-step LED attenuation display• LED indicators for a perfect adjustment of the threshold values for expander/gate compressor and limiter• Servo-balanced inputs and outputs• Bypass switch (hard bypass)• Switch for hard or soft compression (soft knee)• Threshold control and rate control for expander/gate• Threshold ratio attack release and output level controls for compressor• Automatic mode attack/release for compressor• Side chain mode for controlling the compressor via an additional external audio signal with monitor function and low cut filter can be switched on additionally• Threshold control for limiter• Selector switch 4 dBu/-10 dBv for internal level adjustments
