PRO1 Live Audio System
Operator Manual
Dynamics (D zone)
The dynamic section — or D zone — controls two dynamic devices present in the input
channel signal path, that is, the compressor and gate. While most D zone controls are
shared between the two dynamic devices, some are device-specific. The GUI treats
both devices independently, the processing area of the one currently displayed in the
channel strip being the one currently selected to the D zone. Swapping between the
two dynamic devices can be done by clicking in the compressor/gate areas of an input
fast strip, by pressing the input or gate quick access buttons, or the up/down select
buttons in the D zone itself when the input channel strip is in use.
Activating the dynamic device’s ON button activates the device, but also affects the
audio.
By default the source for the compressor's sidechain and gate's key (sidechain) is the
channel itself, but by pressing or clicking on the menu button in the dynamics
processing area you are taken to the patching page where you can choose another
source for these inputs. For side chain details, see “Side chain” on page 265.
6 Direct output
drop-down list
Displays the destination(s) of the direct output. For

pre-processing. This function is not used if the direct
