2. METER ZERO RECESSED TRIM
Feature: Readjust your meters to zero in the unlikely case of drift.
Benefit: Always have dead-on accurate metering.
Operation: Perform this operation only when the unit has warmed up a minimum of 2 hours. Activate the
vu/comp button (red) in order
to view gain reduction. Make certain no audio is present. Turn screwdriver in appropriate meter (left or right) until perfectly
in line with zero.

3. EXTERNAL SIDECHAIN
Feature: Connect an external equalizer here. Either parametric or graphic will suffice, though parametric provides finer control.
Benefit: Boost or cut any frequency, to make the Compressor more or less sensitive to that audio range.
Example: See the “Sidechain” controls section.
Tip: , Cables DO make a difference. Ask for Mogami 2534 interconnects.
Tip: , To use in unbalanced mode, take your high quality Mogami cable and tie pin 3 to 1 on the XLRs
