Reference Manual

■ U76

This models a well-known vintage compressor/limiter used in a wide range of situations.

■ Opt-2A

This processor emulates a well-known vintage model of vacuum tube opto compressor.

■ EQ-1A

This processor emulates a vintage EQ that’s considered a classic example of a passive EQ.

■ Dynamic EQ

This is a newly developed equalizer that dynamically changes the EQ gain in response to the input

signal, controlling the amount of EQ cut or boost in a way similar to a compressor or expander.

Parameter Range Description

INPUT –96.0 to 0.0 dB Input level

OUTPUT –96.0 to 0.0 dB Output level

ATTACK 5.50 to 0.10 ms

Attack time of the compressor. Turning this all the way to the right produces

the fastest attack.

RELEASE 1100.0 to 56.4 ms

Release time of the compressor. Turning this all the way to the right produces

the fastest release.

RATIO ALL, 4, 8, 12, 20 Switches the compression ratio. Pressing ALL produces the strongest effect.

METER OFF, +4, +8, GR Switches the meter display

Parameter Range Description

GAIN –56.0 dB to 40.0 dB Output level

PEAK REDUCTION –48.0 dB to 48.0 dB Amount of gain reduction

RATIO 2.00 to 10.00 Compression ratio

METER SELECT

OUTPUT+10, GAIN REDUCTION,

OUTPUT+4

Switches the meter display

Parameter Range Description

LOW FREQUENCY 20, 30, 60, 100 Hz Frequency range of the low range filter

(LOW) BOOST 0.0 to 10.0 Boost amount of the low range filter

(LOW) ATTEN 0.0 to 10.0 Attenuation amount of the low range filter

HIGH FREQUENCY 3k, 4k, 5k, 8k, 10k, 12k, 16k Hz Frequency range of the high range filter

(HIGH) BOOST 0.0 to 10.0 Boost amount of the high range filter

(HIGH) BAND WIDTH 0.0 to 10.0 Band width of the high range filter

(HIGH) ATTEN SEL 5k, 10k, 20k Hz Frequency range attenuated by the high range filter

(HIGH) ATTEN 0.0 to 10.0 Attenuation amount of the high range filter

IN OFF, ON

Turns the processor on/off. If this is off, the filter section

will be bypassed, but the signal will pass through the

input/output transformers and the amp circuit.

Parameter Range Description

BAND ON/OFF OFF, ON Turns the corresponding band on/off

SIDECHAIN CUE OFF, ON

If this is on, the sidechain signal that controls the dynamics will

be sent to the CUE bus for monitoring.

SIDECHAIN LISTEN OFF, ON

If this is on, the sidechain signal that is linked to the dynamics

will be output to the bus (such as the STEREO bus or a MIX/

MATRIX bus) to which the inserted channel is being sent.

FILTER TYPE Low Shelf, Bell, Hi Shelf Switches the type of equalizer and sidechain filter

FREQUENCY 20.0 to 20.0k Hz Frequency controlled by the equalizer and sidechain filter

Q 15.0 to 0.50 Q of the equalizer and sidechain filter

THRESHOLD –80.0 to 10.0 dB Threshold value at which processing begins to apply

RATIO ∞ : 1 to 1 : 1.50 Sets the boost/cut ratio relative to the input signal.

MODE BELOW, ABOVE

Specifies whether the processor will operate when the

sidechain signal exceeds the threshold setting (ABOVE) or

when it falls below the threshold setting (BELOW)

ATTACK/RELEASE FAST, SLOW, AUTO

Attack time/release time for when compression or boost is

applied
