Compressor (D zone)
For the outputs, the dynamic section (D zone) only has a compressor in the
output channel signal path. As the D zone is also used for the gate on the
input channels, some controls may be redundant.
The output channel compressor has ve styles — corrective, adaptive, creative,
vintage and shimmer — which are selectable via the MODE button. Each has
a distinctive appearance in the GUI channel strip. While the dynamic section
is addressing the compressor, all of its controls are enabled except the hold
control knob.
For details of the compressor graph, see “Compressor graph” in chapter 30.
The side chain is similar to the one used for the input channels, see “Side chain”.

Item Control Function
1 DYN switch Enables the compressor in the signal path. When switched o, compressor is bypassed. See Figure 39.
2 listen LED
To aid set up, the compressor has a side chain listen that sends the side chain onto a solo bus. This side chain listen LED
indicator illuminates to warn you that soloed material is from the side chain, and not the main channel. See Figure 39
in Appendix M.

threshold
control knob
Sets the signal level above which gain reduction starts to be applied. Range is from -50 dBu to +25 dBu.
4
comp/gate up/
down select
buttons
These select buttons swap dynamic section control from compressor to gate, and the reverse.
5
make up control
knob
This compressor gain control compensates for the reduced loudness of a compressed signal. Range is from 0dB to 24 dB.
6 KNEE switch
This compressor control controls how compressor starts to apply gain as the signal goes through the threshold.
For more information, see Table “Compressor graph” in chapter 30 and “Knee” in Appendix A.
