EQ and Dynamics
This chapter explains the EQ (equalizer) and dynamics that are provided on
each channel of the LS9.
Each input channel and output channel of the LS9 provides a four-band EQ and dynamics.
EQ can be used on all input channels and all output channels. An attenuator is provided immedi-
ately before the EQ, allowing you to adjust the level of the input signal. In addition, input channels
provide a high-pass filter that is independent of the EQ.
Input channels provide two dynamics processors. Dynamics 1 can be used as gate, ducking,
compressor, or expander. Dynamics 2 can be used as compressor, compander hard, compander
soft, or de-esser. Output channels provide one dynamics processor, which can be used as com-
pressor, expander, compander hard, or compander soft.
This section explains the four-band EQ that is provided on input channels and output channels.
