The second unit is the RCF GATE, topped by its Preset box,
with ATTACK and RELEASE time controls, THRESHOLD level
and RANGE intervention, completed by the display and the
activation switch. On the left you can see the characteristic
curve of the internal GATE: when the input signal goes
below the THRESHOLD, its level is reduced by RANGE dBs.
The third unit is the RCF COMPRESSOR,
topped by its Preset box, with a display on
the left, followed by ATTACK and RELEASE
times controls, THRESHOLD level, RATIO
compression, POST GAIN level and the
activation switch. On the right, the
characteristic curve of the compressor is
shown, including the contribution of POST
GAIN control.
For faster adjustments, the compressor features the Easy option, located in a small box on the left of the
Preset box - Easy has only the COMPRESSION control (based on input level signal with preset thresholds,
with automatic Post Gain adjustment) against the five controls of Advanced option.
