It provides six discrete channels of low level and high level compression.1.3 Concepts and TerminologyLow Level CompressorLow Level Compression can be explained in simple terms as the opposite ofstandard or high level compression. In a standard compression setting, any signalabove the set threshold gets compressed and attenuated.With the MV360˚ Low Level Compression function, any signal below the setthreshold gets compressed upward, resulting in increased gain.
