Hold 0.1 to 20.2 m Sec
Hold time is the length of time before the Ducker releases.
Release 0.0 to 10.0 dB/Sec
Release is how quickly the attenuated signal returns to its nominal level.
The ZonePro™ 640 and 640 offer the AutoWarmth® module on each output. AutoWarmth® is
a patent pending process that compensates for naturally occurring bass frequency loss for low
level signals. The Fletcher-Munson Equal Loudness curves show that the perception of low fre-
quency signals decreases quickly with decreasing loudness. AutoWarmth® gradually boosts the
low end in response to the overall loudness of the signal. The result is warm and balanced sig-
nal at low levels.
