+10dB switch
Boosts input
amplifier by
+10dB for extra
tube over-drive
INPUT GAIN
Trims input level
-20dB to +8dB
detent at 0dB
(+18dB with +10dB IN)
LF and HF THRESHOLD
Range -15dB to +15dB, detent at 0dB,
clockwise rotation raises the threshold
(less compression) and counter clockwise
rotation lowers the threshold (more compression)
at the frequencies set by the LF (low frequency)
and HF (high-frequency) spectral frequency
controls located directly below
THRESHOLD
Sets compressor
input threshold
from -30dB to
+20dB
COMPRESSION
Sets ratio of
compressor
from 1:1 to 20:1
COMPRESSOR
Switch (in) engages
compressor into
signal path
(hard-wire bypass)
