COMP screen
Allows you to configure the compressor for each channel. You can adjust settings using 1-
knob mode, which allows you to use the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob to easily adjust settings,
or manual mode, which allows you to adjust each parameter individually.
1
COMP button
Turns the compressor on and off.
2
1-knob button
Switches between 1-knob mode and manual mode.
3
1-knob level slider (1-knob mode only)
Adjusts the amount of 1-knob COMP applied.
Not displayed during manual mode.
4
Compressor input level slider
Displays the compressor output level.
5
Threshold slider
Determines the level at which compression is applied.
6
Compressor graph
Displays a visual representation of the current settings.
7
Ratio slider
Determines the amount of compression that is applied.
8
Attack slider
When the input signal exceeds the threshold, this setting determines how quickly the
maximum amount of compression is applied.
9
Release slider
When the input signal drops below the threshold, this setting determines how much
time passes before compression is no longer applied. The value here is expressed as the
time required for the level to change by 6 dB.
0
Out Gain slider
Adjusts the output level.
A
Knee button
Determines how gradual or sudden the curve is at the threshold. A soft knee means that
compression is applied gradually as the signal exceeds the threshold; a hard knee means
a more sudden transition.
B
GR (gain reduction) meter
Displays the amount by which the signal's gain is reduced.
C
OUT (compressor output) meter
Displays the compressor output level.
How does 1-knob COMP mode work?
1-knob COMP mode allows you to adjust the amount of compression applied to the signal with
just the turn of a knob.
By turning the [TOUCH AND TURN] knob to the right (or sliding the 1-knob level slider to the
right), more compression is applied. In situations where raising the fader or gain could cause
clipping at louder points in the signal, compression can deliver a more consistent sound.
1-knob COMP takes some of the worry out of compression by allowing you to adjust the
balance between threshold, ratio, and out gain easily.
