C

OUTPUT control

This controls the output level. When the input signal is
compressed by the compressor/limiter, it may appear to
have diminished in volume. This knob adjusts the level of
the signal that has been processed by the compressor/lim-
iter. While turning the COMP switch ON/OFF, adjust the
OUTPUT control so that the volume of the bypassed and
processed signals is the same.

D

OUTPUT jacks

These are the output jacks. Three-pin XLR type connectors
(male) and 1/4" phone jacks are provided. Both types are
balanced. Nominal impedance is 600 ohms for both.

E

INPUT jacks

These are the input jacks. Three-pin XLR type connectors
(female) and 1/4" phone jacks are provided. Both types are
balanced. Nominal impedance is 600 ohms for both.

F

SIDE CHAIN INT/EXT switch

This switch selects the signal source for the circuit that
detects the point at which the compressor/limiter is applied.
With a setting of INT, the detector uses the channel signal.
With a setting of EXT, the detector uses the signal from the
SIDE CHAIN IN jack.

G

SIDE CHAIN IN/OUT jack

These jacks are used to split the input signal, or to use an
external signal as the trigger for the compressor/limiter.
