OUTPUT COMP function
230 PM5D/PM5D-RH Owner’s Manual Reference section
❏ Key-in signal flow when Link= On
❏ Key-in signal flow when Link= Off
Note
Stereo Link is fixed at On for paired channels and for STE-
REO A/B channels.
H Compressor graph
This graph displays the approximate response of the
compressor.
I KEY IN SOURCE
Select the desired key-in signal from the following
choices.
J THRESHOLD (Threshold level)
Specifies the threshold level at which the compressor
will operate. The input signal will start being com-
pressed when the key-in signal exceeds this level;
compression will be removed when the signal falls
below this level.
K RATIO
Specifies the ratio at which the input signal will be
compressed when the key-in signal exceeds the thresh-
old level.
L ATTACK (Attack time)
Specifies the time from when the key-in signal exceeds
the threshold level until compression begins.
M RELEASE (Release time)
Specifies the time from when the key-in signal falls
below the threshold level until compression is
removed.
N GAIN
Specifies the output level gain.
O KNEE
Select the sharpness at which the output level changes;
the range is HARD or 1–5. HARD produces the sharp-
est change, and 5 produces the most gradual change.
SELF PRE EQ
The pre-EQ signal of the currently
selected output channel
SELF POST EQ
The post-EQ signal of the currently
selected output channel
MIX1–24 POST EQ The post-EQ signal of the corre-
sponding output channel (however,
you can only select from the group
to which that channel belongs,
from the three groups MIX 1–12,
MIX 13–24, and MATRIX/ST)
MATRIX1–8 POST EQ
ST AL/AR POST EQ
ST BL/BR POST EQ
MIX21–24 OUT
The output signal of the corre-
sponding MIX channel immedi-
ately before the output port
