1 INPUT ADJUST
Used to adjust the input gain. However, the output gain is linked to change in the
opposite direction, to prevent changes in pass-through volume (the volume when
COMP IN and LIMIT IN are off). For example, if INPUT ADJUST is +5dB, the input gain
is +5dB and the output gain is -5dB.
See below for more information about how to use INPUT ADJUST.
If the level of the input signal sent to effects is too low to reach the threshold, increase
the input gain.
Adjust the sound quality by changing the input level sent to the input circuitry (audio
transformer and Class A amplifier).

3 COMP IN
Compressor on/off
4 COMP THRESHOLD
Compressor threshold. However, the changing value is linked to INPUT ADJUST.
5 COMP RECOVERY
Compressor release time. The release times for a1 (auto 1) and a2 (auto 2) change
automatically. a1: Changes automatically between 100 ms and 2 sec. a2: Changes
automatically between 50 ms and 5 sec.
6 COMP GAIN
Compressor make-up gain. Applied before the limiter.
7 COMP RATIO
Compressor ratio
8 METER SELECT (STEREO mounting)
Selects the signal source for the meter. You can select from IN (input level), GR (gain
reduction), and OUT (output level). When the source is switched, the design of the
meter also switches as follows: VU/GR/VU.

Since there are substantial changes in threshold, the changing display values are
linked. However, the internal conditions of the COMPRESSOR/LIMITER
SECTION do not actually change.
