Link
controls the relationship between the left (upper) channel and the right (lower) channel.
States
Left/Right, Linked, Lateral/Vertical
Default
Linked
Left/Right:
The compressor acts as two completely separate compressors, with the option to
separately adjust all controls per channel. This mode can significantly change the stereo image
of a stereo signal.
Link:
Both channels are linked to one another. Upper channel controls both channels, while
lower channel settings are grayed out. The compression detector will calculate the maximum
level of the two channels combined, and compress both channels according to the maximum
level. This mode better preserves the stereo image of a signal.
Lateral/Vertical:
Feeds the stereo signal through a sum/difference matrix which splits the
stereo signal into sum (fed to the upper/left channel) and difference (fed to the lower/right
channel). The input level is set after the matrix, so the relationship between the sum and the
difference channels can be controlled. At the compressor output, the signal passes through a
second matrix which turns it back into a Left/Right stereo signal. (Output gain occurs before the
second matrix).
Mains
controls analog characteristics caused by noise floor and hum, based on the power
supplies of the original units.
