A note about Sidechain:
Sidechain lets you trigger the compressor using an external source, which is fed into the RMS detector
and controls the compression of the input signal. Sidechain may only be used in New (Feed Forward)
mode. An external sidechain trigger cannot be used in Old (Feed Back) mode; attempting to do so
automatically switches the compressor to New (Feed Forward) mode.
3.3 Link Section
L/R Link
Sets the percentage of linkage between the left and right channels. While in Link mode, each channel
is still controlled by its own RMS detector, which prevents loading and slaving from either side.
Range
IND, 50%, 60%,70%,80%,90%,100%
Default
100%
Shape
Adjusts the Shape of the link control voltage mixing. The HP (high pass filter, LP low pass filter
eliminating the highs and a combination of both filters creating a band pass filter. the value of this circuit
allows the Link control voltage to not include certain frequencies. Different filter combinations can be
used, for example, to prevent percussive instruments on one channel from coupling and causing
unwanted compression on the other channel.
