The ACTIVE switch operates a hard-bypass relay circuit to switch the channels in and out of processing and a status LED indicates that the channel is active.

The unit also switches to relay hard-bypass automatically in the case of a power failure, either on the primary or secondary side of the power supply, or when the unit is turned off at the POWER switch.

If the TRANSIENT DESIGNER is operated in the LINK mode (see 5), channel one's (or three's) ACTIVE also switches channel two (or four) in and out. Note that channel two's ACTIVE status-LED will also follow channel one's ACTIVE status.

The SIGNAL-LED indicates an incoming signal with a level excee- ding -40 dB. In complex studio arrangements the LED indication helps to check if a signal actually arrives at the TRANSIENT DESIGNER.

With the ATTACK control, the attack period of a signal can be emphasised or attenuated by up to 15 dB. For detailed informa- tion about the mode of operation of the ATTACK control please read the section 'Tech Talk' on pages 7 and 8.
