4.2.11.2 – EDITING COMPRESSOR SETTINGS
To edit a channel’s compressor settings, do the following:
1. Press the [COMP] button to go into Compressor Mode.
2. Press one of the channel select buttons to select a channel to edit. The currently selected channel
will light up green — all others red. The rotary LEDs will immediately snap to the selected channel’s
compressor settings.
3. Adjust any of the four rotaries to adjust the compressor’s settings. You may also press and hold the
[SHIFT] button to access more compressor parameters on the rotaries.
4.2.11.3 – [SHIFT] FUNCTIONALITY
When in Compressor Mode, the [SHIFT] button is used to access the Attack parameter via the rotaries.
When [SHIFT] is held down, the rotary in charge of the Release parameter (rotary 3) changes to Attack —
the other three rotaries no longer function.
EXAMPLE USE
1. Press the [COMP] button to go into Compressor Mode.
2. Select a channel by pressing its channel select button.
3. Press and hold the [SHIFT] button. The Release rotary (rotary 3) will now display the current
Attack setting — the other three rotaries will turn off.
4. While [SHIFT] is still held down, adjust the Attack rotary to change the attack time of the
compressor.
5. Release the [SHIFT] button to go back to normal rotary behavior.
Since the faders function the same as they do in Mains Mode, [SHIFT] can also be
used to solo and mute channels via the faders.
