Operation of the LA-2A
Input and Output Connections
Input and Output connections are made using standard XLR style connectors. Terminal
strips are also provided.
Output connections Input connections
6) Stereo Link 1) + 600 ohms
7) Ground 2) + 250 ohms
8) + 600 ohms 3) Center tap
9) Center tap 4) - 250 ohms
10) - 600 ohms 5) - 600 ohms
Barrier Strip Connections
If you wish to use the barrier strip instead of the XLR connectors, connect as follows:
INPUT: Connect + 600 (1) to HOT and –600 (5) to NEUTRAL.
OUTPUT: Connect + 600 (8) to HOT and –600 (10) to NEUTRAL.
Connect Ground (7) to the cable shield.
Peak Reduction Control
Operation of the LA-2A is very straightforward. There are only two controls that one must
deal with. The first is the Peak Reduction control. This control should be set so that the
compressor exhibits the desired amount of compression. This control should be set
independently of the Gain Control.
Gain Control
This control does not affect the compression. The gain control should be set after the
desired amount of compression is determined using the Peak Reduction control. Once the
Peak Reduction control is set, adjust the Gain Control to achieve the desired output level.
