Using dynamics

Input channels provide two dynamics processors, and output channels provide one dynamics
processor.
1
Use the navigation keys to access the
OVERVIEW screen for the channel whose
dynamics you want to control.
The DYNAMICS 1/2 field shows the dynamics on/off
status and the amount of gain reduction.
2
In the OVERVIEW screen, press the
DYNAMICS 1/2 field to access the DYNAM-
ICS 1 (2) popup window.
In the DYNAMICS 1 (2) popup window, you can edit
the dynamics settings and turn the processor on/off.
There are three variations of this popup window; one-
channel, eight-channel, and ALL. These windows
include the following items.
[DYNAMICS 1 (2) popup window (1ch)]
This window shows only the currently selected chan-
nel. All dynamics parameters can be viewed and
edited. This is convenient when you want to make
detailed dynamics settings for a specific channel.
1 Dynamics type buttons
Use these buttons to select one of the following four
types of dynamics.
• Input channels
• Output channels
B Dynamics graph
This graph displays the approximate response of the
dynamics processor.
C Level meter
These meters show the amount of gain reduction (GR),
and the peak levels before the gate (IN) and after the
gate (OUT). If the signal clips, the OVER segment
will light. If the corresponding channel is stereo (a ST
IN channel, a MIX/MATRIX channel set to stereo, or
the STEREO channel), level meters for two channels
are displayed.
D DYNAMICS ON/OFF button
Turns the dynamics on/off.
E KEY IN CUE button (only for GATE and
DUCKING)
This button cue-monitors the currently selected key-in
signal.
F THRESHOLD knob
This specifies the threshold at which the dynamics will
begin operating. You can use multifunction encoder 1
to control this.
G Other parameters
The other parameters of the dynamics processor are
shown here. The parameters displayed will depend on
the dynamics type that is selected. You can use multi-
function encoders to adjust these parameters.

• Even if the Cue mode is set to MIX CUE (the mode in which
all channels whose [CUE] key is on are mixed for monitoring),
turning on the KEY IN CUE button will cause only the signal
of the corresponding channel to be monitored. The [CUE]
keys that had been turned on previously will be forcibly
defeated.
