The Converter

Gain Controls: 1, 2, 3 and 4 Provide continuously vari- able gain control over a 30dB range.

Note: In 2-channel mode, only 1 and 2 are active.

UNBAL

Lights when there is a mis- match between the input sig- nal and the setting of the rear-panel Balance switch.

THRESH

When the compressor is on, indicates that the input level has risen above the selected compression threshold.
