Front-Panel Controls and Indicators
Individual for each channel

Threshold:
Sets level at which signals receive most boost;

adjustable from 60 to 40 dB below the nominal
operating level; five-LED meter array indicates
when processor is most active; input clip LED

Equalization:
Three-band filter section
Low-to-Mid crossover frequency adjustable from

75 Hz to 1 kHz, center detent at 300 Hz

Mid-to-High crossover frequency adjustable from

500 Hz to 8 kHz, center detent at 2 kHz

Boost controls for each band; greater than 20 dB

with crossover controls set to their detent positions

Three-position EQ switch selects one

of the following modes: In—processing active; main
path and side chain added within the unit; Side
Chain—side chain signal only, to ease adjustment
of the EQ controls or allow external manipulation;
Out—all processing bypassed (including Source NR)

Source NR:
Sliding band noise reduction section

reduces noise present in the input signal;
adjustable 0–12 dB

Filters:
Selectable; prevent unwanted signals from

entering the low-level processing stage

Highpass: 100, 200 Hz
Lowpass: 4, 8 kHz
Output:
Sets overall channel gain; adjustable from –14 to

+6 dB (with processing out). Clip LED will light to
indicate clipping in the output stage.

Stereo Link:
Switch combines dynamic processor control

signals to prevent image-shifting with stereo
signals; EQ Crossover and Boost controls remain
independent even when processors are linked

Operating Levels
Switch on rear of unit selects between High

(+4 dBu) and Low (–6 dBu) line-level operation

Inputs
XLR type connectors, balanced, floating;

impedance: 10 k

Ω. Maximum Level: High:

+24 dBu; Low: +14 dBu

Outputs
XLR type connectors, balanced, floating;

impedance: 20

Ω. Maximum Level: +26 dBu

balanced, +21 dBu unbalanced (irrespective of the
position of the High/Low switch); either leg of the
output may be grounded for unbalanced operation
with no loss of level

Power Requirements
User-selected voltage nominally 100,

120, 220, 240 VAC 36 W approximate

(1.75 Ч 19 Ч 9.76 inches); further 65 mm
(2.5 inches) depth required for the
XLR connectors

Net: 5.3 kg (11.6 lb) approximate

Environmental Conditions
0° to 40°C (32° to 104°F)
