You can perform detailed editing of the dynamics parame-
ters in the same way as for the EQ parameters.
1
Press an [INPUT SEL] key, a pad 1–4, a
[TRACK SEL] key, or the [STEREO SEL] key
to select the channel whose dynamics
parameters you want to edit.
2
From the dynamics library, recall the set-
tings that are closest to what you have in
mind.
3
Repeatedly press the Selected Channel
section [DYN] knob or hold down the [DYN]
knob and use the CURSOR [
]/[ ] keys to
access the EDIT page of the DYN screen.
1 ON/OFF button
Switches dynamics on/off.
B TYPE
Indicates the currently selected dynamics type. The
displayed indication has the following meaning.
• COMP .........................Compressor
• EXPAND .....................Expander
• GATE ..........................Gate
• COMPAND-H ..............Compander (hard)
• COMPAND-S ..............Compander (soft)
• DUCKING ...................Ducking
C Response curve
This graph indicates the approximate response of
dynamics settings. The horizontal axis of the graph is
the input level, and the vertical axis is the output level.
D KEYIN SOURCE
Selects one of the following as the trigger signal (key-
in signal) that will control dynamics processing.
• SELF .............. The post-EQ signal of the currently
selected channel
• LEFT .............. The post-EQ signal of the adjacent
channel to the left
• AUX1 .............. The signal immediately before the
master send level of the AUX 1 bus
• AUX2 .............. The signal immediately before the
master send level of the AUX 2 bus
E GR (Gain Reduction)
Indicates the amount of gain reduction produced by
the dynamics processor, in a range of –18 dB to 0 dB.
F Output meter
Indicates the level of the signal after it has passed
through the dynamics processor.
G Parameters
Here you can edit the parameters of the dynamics pro-
cessor. The type of parameters and their ranges will
differ depending on the dynamics processor type. For
details on the types of parameter and their function,
refer to the appendix.
4
Move the cursor to the parameter that you
want to edit, and use the [DATA/JOG] dial to
edit the value.
5
To switch dynamics on/off, press the
[ENTER] key.
In the EDIT page, you can press the [ENTER] key to
switch dynamics on/off regardless of the cursor loca-
tion.
Please be aware that if you edit even one parameter in
the EDIT page of the DYN screen, the operation of the
Selected Channel section [DYN] knob will change as
follows for that channel.

• You cannot change the dynamics type in this page. If you
want to use a different type, you must recall library settings
that use the desired type.
NOTE
• You will not be able to select LEFT if you have selected input
channel 1, pad channel 1, track channel 1, or the stereo out-
put channel.
NOTE
• Dynamics settings and operation are linked for paired chan-
nels and for the stereo output channel. In this case, dynamics
processing will operate simultaneously for both channels if
either channel exceeds the threshold level.
