6 Square ONE Dynamics
Features
The Square ONE Dynamics analogue dynamics processor performs dynamic compressor and gate functions,
and has the following features:
• Eight clearly labelled channels, each one comprising:
- Control knobs for adjusting Threshold, Compressor Gain, Attack, Release, Gate Hold, Ratio/Range and
Side Chain Frequency.
- Hard Knee and Vintage switches used in combination to provide four compressor modes.
- Swept frequency side chain filter with Filter In and Narrow switches.
- Solo, External Key, Compressor/Gate and Bypass switches.
- Input and Attenuation level LED meters in the ranges -40dB to +18dB and -2dB to -20dB,
respectively, to show how the outboard processing is performing.
- LEDs for enabled/disabled status indication on some switches.
• Each channel has a processor that can perform as either a compressor or gate.
• Compressor can operate in RMS or peak sensing type (‘vintage’) modes. Each mode has hard knee or
soft knee options. The vintage mode emulates the performance of old classic valve-type compressors.
Other types of compression available are:
- Lo-Q (wide bandwidth) frequency-conscious compressor.
- Hi-Q (narrow bandwidth) frequency-conscious compressor; also known as a de-esser.
- Limiter.
• Intelligent threshold shift (i-TS) to reduce ‘chattering’ within the gate.
• Stereo or multi-channel operation provided by Link switches between channels.
• Variable frequency band pass filter that acts on the side chain signals.
• Solo bus for monitoring the side chain filter during the performance via electrically balanced input and
output via female and male XLR connectors.
• Each channel has electrically balanced input and output via female and male XLR connectors and also a
1/4” TRS-balanced jack socket for External Key input.
• Mains supplied via an IEC socket on rear panel.
• Fuse drawer contains easily replaceable mains fuse with a compartment for a spare.
