Each compressor section houses six compressor parameter control knobs, a bypass 
switch and a hard knee switch, and two sets of six-LED meters (attenuation and level).

 

1

Control knob

Adjusts the time taken for the compressor to respond 
after an over threshold signal.  (Envelope time 
constant.)

2

Control knob

Provides adjustment of up to 18dB of make up gain, 
so that the level of the outgoing signal can be 
matched to the incoming uncompressed signal.

3

Control knob

Adjusts the time taken for the compressor to recover 
after an over threshold signal.  (Envelope time 
constant.)

4

Control knob

Reduces compression at the mid-high frequencies 
(vocal range), while allowing the low and high 
frequencies to be compressed normally.

5

Pushbutton

Switches the compressor to hard knee.  When this 
button is switched off, the knee type is soft knee.

6

LED 
(orange)

Not applicable

On/off status indicator for the HARD knee 
pushbutton.

7

Control knob

Controls the amount of compression applied to over 
threshold signals.

8

LED  meter

Gain reduction meter.  The compressor meter has 
1dB, 2dB, 3dB, 6dB, 10dB and 20dB LEDs.  No 
additional time constants are applied to the meter, so 
that the actual envelope speeds can be easily seen.

The gain reduction meter continues to function 
normally when the DN540 is set in bypass.  The 
bypass indictors are illuminated boldly to signal this 
fact to the user.

9

Control knob

Adjusts the operating point of the compressor.

10

Pushbutton

Removes the compressor/dynamic filter from the 
signal path.
