14 500 SERIES COMPRESSOR LIMITER 522 Quick Start Guide 15 Controls (1) (1) Mounting holes - The 522 module is mounted to the host 500 series rack chassis or box such as the MIDAS Legend L6 or L10, and secured using two screws top and bottom. (2) Threshold control - This knob adjusts the operating point for the compressor. Signals that go over this point (“over threshold”) will be affected by compressor action. Signals that stay below the threshold will not trigger any compression.
16 500 SERIES COMPRESSOR LIMITER 522 Quick Start Guide 17 Controls (7) Gain control - This knob provides adjustment of up to 18 dB of “make up” gain, so that the level of the outgoing compressed signal can be matched to the incoming uncompressed signal as required. (8) Hard Knee switch - Most compression sounds more natural in soft knee mode and thus this is the default setting (switch out).
18 500 SERIES COMPRESSOR LIMITER 522 Quick Start Guide 19 Getting Started The 522 module is designed to be mounted into a 500 series rack chassis or box, such as the MIDAS Legend L6 or L10. The L6/L10 supplies the input and output connections to the 522 module, as well as internal power to run the module. With the power to the L6/L10 turned off, install the 522 module by sliding it in carefully so its rear connector correctly fits into the corresponding multi-pin connector of the L6/L10.
