3.3.9.2 Limiter/Compressor Parameters
The Limiter/Compressor parameters are available on four pages:
PAGE 1 = LIM: ON/OFF, ATCK (attack time), RLSE (release time), THRS (threshold);
PAGE 2 = COMP: ON/OFF, RATIO, ATCK (attack time), RLSE (release time), THRS
(threshold);
PAGE 3 = CLVL: AUTO (compressor auto make-up gain ON/OFF), LFWD (look forward),
GAIN (output gain);
PAGE 4 = KEY: HPF (ON/OFF), LPF (on/off), KINP (key input CHAN or PTCH), SCL
(side-chain link on/off).
PAGE 1 (LIM) ON/OFF: ON/OFF function for the Limiter.
ATTACK TIME: The limiter attack time (ATCK) can be adjusted within a 200 µs to 1 ms
range in 9 discrete steps (0.2 ms, 0.3 ms, 0.4 ms, 0.5 ms, 0.6 ms, 0.7 ms,
0.8 ms, 0.9 ms, and 1 ms).
RELEASE TIME: The limiter release time (RLSE) can be adjusted within a 10 ms to 10 s
range, in 13 discrete steps (10 ms, 20 ms, 30 ms, 50 ms, 100 ms, 200 ms,
300 ms, 500 ms, 1 s, 2 s, 3 s, 5 s, 10 s).
THRESHOLD: The limiter threshold (THRS) can be adjusted in 1 dB steps from 0 dB
FS
to
–48 dB
FS
. The limiter threshold corresponds to the output level.
