FUNCTION SWITCHES
Sidechain: Routes external sidechain input signal to the detector.
OverEasy
®
: Activates the OverEasy‚ compression function.
Auto: Activates automatic program-dependent attack and release times,

indicator lights for signals >+21dBu.
Output: Monitors the output signal and shows its level on the VU meter. Peak
indicator lights for signals >+21dBu.
GR: Monitors the compressor and PeakStopPlus limiter and displays the
total amount of gain reduction on the lower scale of the VU meter.
Pin 1 Lift (Rear Panel) Lifts pin 1 of the input XLR and 1/4” sleeve from chassis ground.
