Compressor 

On/Off

Turns the Compressor On and Off for the 
Selected Channel or Output Bus.

This button engages or disengages 

the compressor for the selected 
channel or output bus. It will 
illuminate to indicate that the 
compressor has been enabled.

The compressor is available for all input and 
output buses.

Soft Knee 

Toggle Button

Engages Soft-Knee Compression.

In normal operating mode, the 
compressor is set for hard-knee 
compression, meaning that the 
gain reduction applied to the 
signal occurs as soon as the signal 
exceeds the level set by the 
threshold. When the Soft Knee 
button is engaged, the onset of 
gain reduction occurs gradually 
after the signal has exceeded 
the threshold. 

Auto Mode 

Button

Enables Automatic Attack and  
Release Mode.

When Auto mode is active, the 

Attack and Release controls 
become inoperative, and a 
preprogrammed attack and release 
curve is used. In this mode, the 
attack is set to 10 ms, and the 
release is set to 150 ms. All other 
compressor parameters can still be 
adjusted manually.

Compressor 

Threshold

Sets and Displays the Threshold of the 
Compressor for the Selected Channel or 
Output Bus.

This encoder sets, and the meter 

displays, the compressor threshold 
for the selected channel or output 
bus. When the signal’s amplitude 
(level) exceeds the threshold 
setting, the compressor engages. 
Turning the knob counterclockwise 
lowers the threshold so that 
compression begins at a lower 
amplitude. The threshold can be 
set from -56 to 0 dB. 
 
 
 
 
 

Compressor 

Compression 

Ratio

Sets and Displays the Compression Ratio 
for the Selected Input Channel or Output 
Bus.

This encoder sets, and the meter 

displays, the com pression ratio (or 
slope) for the selected channel or 
output bus. The ratio sets the 
compression slope, which is a 
function of the output level versus 
the input level. For example, if you 
have the ratio set to 2:1, any signal 
levels above the threshold setting 
will be compressed at a ratio of 2:1. 
This means that for every 2 dB of 
level increase above the threshold, 
the compressor’s output will only 
increase 1 dB. The ratio can be set 
from 1:1 to 14:1.
