COMPRESSOR
When the input volume exceeds the THRESHOLD level,
the input volume is compressed, reducing output volume
variation.
For example, by reducing the levels of sounds that are high
level, lower level sounds become relatively louder, creating
a more even volume level throughout and a more sustained
sound. (See “COMPRESSOR display area overview” on page
19.)
Click the Select (
5
) button of a channel to make
compressor settings for it.
Compressor settings are shown here for the channel
selected using its Select (
5 ) button.
NOTE
•
If the input is a stereo signal (stereo-linked channel or
master), compression will start and be applied to both
channels when either the left or right input channel exceeds
the threshold level.
•
When the compressor is off, the compressor curve will
appear but the meters will not be active.
3
Mode
This shows the operation mode of the unit set using the
MODE button on its front panel.
4
REVERB
This effect adds reverberations to the original sound.
Multiple sounds are delayed at various times with damping
over time that is as natural as possible to produce rever-
berations like those of a hall, live-music club or studio, for
example. (See “REVERB display area overview” on page
19.)

SOLO buttons
The SOLO buttons change according to the current mode.
When the unit is in AUDIO I/F mode, if a channel is
soloed (SOLO button turned on), channels that have not
been soloed will automatically be muted (in place solo
monitoring).
When the unit is in MIXER mode, channels that are soloed
(SOLO buttons turned on) will be sent to the SOLO bus and
channels that have not been soloed will automatically be
muted (PFL solo monitoring).
The MUTE buttons of muted channels will light. (Default: off)
Multiple channels can also be soloed at the same time when
the unit is in AUDIO I/F or MIXER mode.
NOTE
•
When the unit is in AUDIO I/F mode and all the SOLO
buttons are off, clicking a SOLO button will solo that
channel and automatically mute the other channels,
lighting their MUTE buttons.
•
When the unit is in AUDIO I/F mode if every SOLO button is
turned off, channels that had been automatically muted
will become unmuted. Channels that had been individually
muted before any channel was soloed will remain muted.
•
The MASTER L/R channel MUTE button will not turn on
automatically when the unit enters solo mode.
