Ganged
For stereo use, press the “ganged” key. This locks
together channel 1 and channel 2 gain and threshold
controls. Additionally, if “ganged” is active, the
compressor / limiter links

the sidechains of the two
channels. Typical applications for “ganged” mode are
• stereo (left/right) recordings with two
microphones
• stereo insert limiting (during mixdown or
mastering).
If “ganged” is not active, channel 1 and channel 2
settings are independent and the compressor / limiter
works unlinked. Thus the ADC2 can also be used in a
studio recording / mixing environment as dual channel
outboard compressor / limiter.

“sidechain linking ” means that the same gain reduction is
applied to both channels to avoid corrupting the stereo
balance.
