Using the intermediate LINK switches (in channels 1, 2 and 3), you can link to the 
adjacent channel on the right for stereo or multi-channel operation.  Linked channels 
form a group, with the lowest numbered channel in the group being the master and the 
other group members being slaves.  The master channel’s settings override those of the 
slaves, with the exception of the BYPASS and EXT pushbuttons, and the PRESENCE 
and GAIN controls, which still act independently.  (The external sidechain still functions 
when linked because the slave channel sidechain is summed with the master and any 
other slaves within the group.)

A group can contain two, three or four members, and you can have two groups (by 
linking channels 1 and 2, and 3 and 4).  For all possible linking combinations, see 
Figure 8 “All combinations of channel linking”, which also illustrates that the master is 
always the lowest numbered channel within the group.

The audio inputs to the master channel and also any slaves in the linked group are all 
used to control the action of the dynamic processor.  The channel with the highest 
signal level will have the most effect on the linked group.  As all the voltage controlled 
amplifier (VCA) controls are also linked together, the attenuation applied to the linked 
channels in the group will always be identical.  Each slave’s gain reduction meter 
(ATTEN) will track its group master channel exactly.
