Setting Explanation
Input gain Adjusts the input signal’s gain over a range of 0–50 dB, in steps of 0.5 dB.
+48 V phantom
power
Supplies phantom power. Turn this on if you’re using a device that requires
phantom power, such as a condenser mic.
Impedance
select (channels
1 and 2 only)
Choose the Hi-Z (ON) setting if you’ve connected a guitar, and choose the
Lo-Z (OFF) setting if you’ve connected any other device.
Phase Inverts the phase of the input signal.
Low cut Enables the low-cut lter for the input. The cuto frequency is 100 Hz.

Setting Explanation
GATE Gate Mutes signals below the specied level. (dB)
ATK Attack Time
Species the time from when the input level exceeds the threshold until the
compressor begins to operate. (msec)
REL Release Time
Species the time from when the input level falls below the threshold level
until the compressor stops operating. (msec)
THRES Threshold Species the signal level at which the compressor begins operating. (dB)
RATIO Ratio
Species the compression ratio at which the audio signal is to be
compressed.
GAIN Gain Adjusts the output level of the compressor. (dB)
Stereo Link
If this setting is on, the compressor settings of the adjacent channel will be
set so they’re identical to those of this channel.
Comp switch Enables the compressor.
