Gain
The gain for the band can be set using any of these four methods:
• Drag the outer concentric knob handle to the desired value
• Click the “+” or “-” text labels to increment/decrement values
• Hover over the outer concentric knob then use the mouse scroll wheel
• Click directly on the gain value label to switch to that value (this method
works only when Controls Mode is set to “Circular” in the Configuration
panel of the UAD Meter & Control Panel application)
Peak/Shelf Switches
The HF and LF bands are in shelf mode by default (switches in
“down” position). When the Peak/Shelf switch is engaged for the
band (in “up” position), the band is changed to peak mode. The de-
fault value is Shelf.
550L Pre-Dynamics
The Pre-Dynamics button (“PREDYN”) re-routes the 550L sig-
nal. By default, the audio signal is routed into the 550L mod-
ule after dynamics processing. When PREDYN is enabled (when the green in-
dicator is lit), this routing is swapped, and the EQ module precedes the
dynamics processors instead.
When550L PREDYN is active, the dynamics side chain is always tapped after
the 550L module, regardless of the state of the 215L module’s SC function.
Note: PREDYN has no effect when the 550L’s SC button is active.
The effect of the PREDYN button is shown in the diagrams below.
