BAE AUDIO – 10DCF

METER

The meter was selected for easy reading and lit with LED’s so there is never a bulb to burn out. It is only for gain 

reduction in decibels (dB) in a gas-tank style so that loss of audio level moves the meter to the left. The meter is 

internally calibrated, and the outer flathead screw should never be turned.

STEREO LINKING

The 10DC is equipped to be linked in stereo operation if desired. When using two 10DC units, either one of them 

could be used as the Master by simply setting the controls so that it compresses or limits more than the other 

unit. The unit which is exhibiting more level loss sends its control voltage to the other unit so that both units apply 

the same amount of gain reduction. Because this control voltage is not an audio signal, a simple RCA type cable 

(provided with the purchase of two units) can be used to link the units together. To minimize accidental linking, 

BOTH pushbuttons must be engaged for stereo operation.

BYPASS FILTER

(10DCF Model)

The 10DCF model features a low frequency bypass filter. The rotary switch can adjust from OFF to bypassing 

frequencies below which you DO NOT want to compress in the side-chain. These frequencies are 50, 80, 160, 

and 300Hz. The idea behind this is that lower frequencies have more energy making the 10DCF react more to 

compress and/or limit the audio and thereby affecting the entire audio bandwidth along with it. If lower frequencies 

are bypassed, then you can have more control  over midrange and higher frequencies while preventing low 

frequencies from overtaking the attenuation.
