STEREO
DYNAMICS PROCESSING
Stereo coupling is usefui for
all c4>pIications where two
channels must be com-
pressed and the left/right
perspective must remain
the
same.
Examples include
the L
and R
overhead mikes on a drum kit
or
piano,
a
stereo
submix of
a vocal ensemble, the
feed
from an X-Y or other pair of mikes
in a classical recording,
a complete stereo
mix,
etc. Ail of
our eariier comments about compression
and gating apply here;
the difference
is that when the Stereo Couple
switch is pushed, the gain
changes in the two
channels
will
be
identical.
In this mode, the signals at each rms detector
are combined (so the
true rms sum
can be sensed)
and controlied. As mentioned,
all functions of
Channel 1 control both
channels except for Sidechain
and Bypass.
Use this mode whenever imaging must remain
stable.
