Compressor (D zone)

For the outputs, the dynamic section (D zone) only has a compressor in the output

channel signal path. As the D zone is also used for the gate on the input channels,

some controls may be redundant.

The output channel compressor has five styles — corrective, adaptive, creative, vintage

and shimmer — which are selectable via the MODE button. Each has a distinctive

appearance in the GUI channel strip. While the dynamic section is addressing the

compressor, all of its controls are enabled except the hold control knob.

For details of the compressor graph, see “About the compressor graph” on page 252.

The side chain is similar to the one used for the input channels, see “Side chain” on

page 255.

Item Description

1 ON switch, enables the compressor in the signal path. When switched off,

compressor is bypassed.

2 To aid set up, the compressor has a side chain listen that sends the side

chain onto a solo bus. This side chain listen LED indicator illuminates to

warn you that soloed material is from the side chain, and not the main

channel.
