SSL E-Channel & G-Channel User Manual9Dynamics Section ControlsCompressor (white knobs) The compressor’s Ratio/Slope can be set from 1 to infinity (limiter). The Threshold is variably adjustable from +10 dB to -20 dB. When the Attack time switch is set to Slow (F.ATK off) attack time is auto-sensing andprogram dependent. Fast setting (F.ATK) attack time is 1 ms. Release time is adjustable from 0.1 to 4 seconds.Expander/Gate (green knobs) The expander’s Threshold is variable from -30 dB to +10 dB. Range is variable from 0 – 40 dB. When the Attack time switch is set to Slow (F.ATK off) attack time is auto-sensing andprogram dependent. Fast setting (F.ATK) attack time is 1 ms. Release time is adjustable from 0.1 sec to 4 seconds. The Gate switch toggles the section from an expander (default mode) into a gate.Dyn To Bypass bypasses the entire dynamics section. Note that selecting Bypass does not result in aflat signal, but rather one which mimics the flat response of the SSL channel strip hardware. Ch Out moves the dynamics to the output of the E-Channel, making it post-EQ.
