MASTER / SLAVE Stereo Link When channels are Linked
• Bypassing the Master channel does not automatically bypass
the Slave channel. Channel ACTIVE / BYPASS switches are
the only controls which do not follow the Master channel,
making it possible to bypass each channel individually.
• Selecting Listen on the Master channel automatically puts
both channels into Listen mode. Side-chain function switch
indicators are turned o on the Slave channel.
• Meters for Master and Slave channels remain active, indicat-
ing both channels are being processed.
ACTIVE / BYPASS
e MASTER / SLAVE switches link channels 1 & 2, or
channels 3 & 4 for stereo operation. When linked, the associ-
ated LINK indicator lights and only the controls of the Master
channel (channel 1 or channel 3) are active, with the exception
of channel ACTIVE / BYPASS switches. is feature helps pre-
serves a stable left/right image when compressing a stereo source,
such as a vocal or horn submix.

Stereo Linking in Compressor Mode
Linked Compressors use the rms sum of the two channels’ side-
chains, and display this summed result on the side-chain dBr
meters of both channels. e Master channel settings determine
the actual gain reduction characteristics.
Linked Controls in Dynamic EQ Mode
When channels are linked in Dynamic EQ mode, both channels
use the Master channels’ control settings, but the dynamic EQ
essentially functions independently for each channel. Combin-
ing the rms values of broadband and bandpass signals, as is done
in Compressor mode, is of no advantage in Dynamic EQ mode.
Stereo-Linked Limiters
When channels are linked, the Master channel Limit reshold
setting determines the maximum output level for both chan-
nels. However, the greater of the two peak-detected signals is
used to control the gain of both Master and Slave channels. For
example, if the Slave channel signal exceeds the Mater channel’s
Limit reshold by 3 dB, both channels are limited by 3 dB. e
Limit Headroom meters remain independent for both channels,
as the dynamics of the Master and Slave channels may be quite
dierent.

Selecting BYPASS disables all Compressor/Dynamic EQ
processing, including the GAIN control. e side-chain dBr
meter, threshold indicator and gain reduction meter continue
to operate when a channel is bypassed. Similarly, the side-chain
Listen function is also available. Channels can be individually
bypassed, even in Linked mode.
Note: e Limiter is active at all times and is not aected by
the BYPASS switch. To bypass the Limiter, simply rotate the
Limiter reshold control fully clockwise (+22 dBu setting).
