Pick the Channel you would like to adjust gain, change EQ or adjust compression and hold down the A/B button or "OverPress" it till it lights up RED

Navigate to the "Dynamics" tab.

 

Adjust the "GAIN" slider with the touch pad or input knob to adjust the gain of the selected microphone input.

 

Make sure signal bounces around 0 on the VU meter.

 

Navigate to the Dynamics tab and adjust the compression settings to change the compression on the selected channel. You may have to click on the "enable" button.


"THRESH" is used to define the point at which the compression "kicks in." In this screen shot it is at -20.1dB which is confusing because that is equal to 0 on the VU meter.


"RATIO" is used to determine how much the compressor compresses. In this screen shot 3.00:1 means that for every 3dB that comes into the compressor past the set "THRESH" the compressor will output 1 dB. In effect reducing your dynamic range.

 

"ATTACK" is used to determine how soon the compressor "kicks in." In this screen shot 5.00mS means that once the input signal has lasted 5 miliseconds past -20.1dB, the compressor will start and continue to reduce the incoming signal until that signal goes below the "THRESH" again.


"RELEASE" is used to determine how soon the compressor "kicks out" or stops affecting the incoming signal once the signal has dropped below -20.1dB. In this screen shot, that time lasts for 320 mili seconds.


"MAKEUP" is used to turn the compressed signal back up, or "make up" the gain that had been compressed out of the original input signal. You may notice that once you've set your input gain (in the previous step) correctly, and add compression that your signal will be some what lower. Adjust this make up gain to get it back up to 0 on the VU meter.

 

If nothing seems to be happening...make sure the "ENABLED" button is pressed.

 

Navigate to the EQ tab and adjust the sliders to change the equalization on the selected channel. You may have to click on the "enable" button.
