Threshold (T) -40dB to +20dB
Threshold is the signal level at which the unit starts to compress the
signal. If the level is set to -10 dBu, any signal larger than -10 dBu is
compressed while any signal that has a level that is lower than -10dBu is
left at the same signal level. Light compression is where only the loudest
parts of the signal go over the threshold. Very heavy compression can be
achieved by setting the threshold low enough that almost the entire
signal content is over the threshold. For most signals, the most natural
compression is achieved when most of the signal content remains just
below the threshold and only the peaks cross the threshold.
4.8 Alignment Delay(DL)
The 260™ offers alignment delay, which can be divided into pre-
crossover delay post-crossover delay. The alignment delay is used for
compensating signal delay that occurs due to internal speaker
components such as horns, speakers and subwoofers within speaker
cabinets. The alignment delay is also ideal to compensate for the
difference in high and low frequency speed. The parameters for the
alignment delay are as follows and are user adjustable. The parameter
setting interface is as follows:
