The Attack controls the speed in which the gate opens.
The Release determines the time it takes before the gate closes again.
The Range control adjusts the amount of attenuation when the gate is closed
An On/Off switch is implemented.
5.3.2 Compressor
The compressor can be adjusted with the Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release and Make-up gain
controls.
The Threshold setting controls the moment the compressor starts working.
The Ratio controls the in/output relationship when compression takes place. A maximum of
20:1 is equivalent to a limit function.
The Attack control adjusts the time it takes to respond to an increase of input signal.
The Release control adjusts the time it takes to recover from compression.
The make-up gain can adjust the lost gain when heavy compression takes place.
An overall On/Off switch is silently switching the compressor on or off.
5.4 Level and Routing
When the signal has been processed in level and dynamics it can be routed to one or more
output busses such as the Aux. busses, Program (main) busses, Mix busses, Clean-feed busses
and the stereo CUE buss. A description of individual output busses is written below.
5.4.1 Aux. busses
The Sirius has three stereo AUX busses. These busses accept
signals from the input module pre or post fader, depending upon
your choice.
Every Aux send can be adjusted in level and in left/right balance.
A Mute function in the form of an ON switch is available.
5.4.2 Program busses
The Sirius has two program busses implemented. These are accessible through Program 1 and
or 2. This signal is post fader of course.
5.4.3 Mix busses
