Touchscreen and TT Control

The ATK control adjusts the time for the gate to open and pass the signal 

through once the signal exceeds the threshold after reduction has occurred. 

ATK is adjustable in the range 1–30 ms. ATK is scaled such that the faster 

settings can have finer adjustments. The default ATK is 1 ms.

The REL control adjusts the time for the gate to close and begin gain reduction 

after the signal drops below the threshold and the hold time has passed. REL 

is adjustable from 50 ms to 3 s and is scaled such that faster settings can have 

finer the adjustments. The default REL time is 250 ms.

The EXPANDER/GATE switch toggles from Gate to Expander. It is accessible 

only from the GATE/EXP Touchscreen, not from DYNAMICS. In Expander 

mode, the, HOLD, ATK and REL controls operate the same as in Gate mode 

but the RANGE control is displayed as RATIO. This can produce smoother 

sounding gain reduction in many situations. 

In Expander Mode, RANGE is replaced by RATIO that sets the rate of gain re-

duction as the signal drops below the Threshold. Ratio is variable between 1:20 

(maximum gain reduction) to 1:1 (no gain reduction). As RATIO approaches to 

1:1, the resolution between values increases.

Snapshots are not presently available from the Touchscreen but can be edited 

from the TT control software. This section presents the TT control screens and 

instructions for their use.

Press the SNAP QuickMix button to open the SNAPSHOTS window in TT con-

trol (or choose Snapshots from the main TT control menu). The left side of the 

window displays a vertical list of all snapshots with PROTECT, CLEAR, 

STORE, and RECALL buttons below (Figure 6-17). 

Touch a snapshot name in the SNAPSHOT TITLE field to select it. An empty 

snapshot slot displays 

Empty 

while a used snapshot displays 

Snapshot n

 where 

n

 is the automatically incremented snapshot number.
