Operating The S•com
Whether you are an experienced audio engineer, just starting out, or you just want to experiment, follow the
steps below to get going. Further sections in this manual will cover basic dynamics and the associated parame-
ters, system set-ups and applications for using dynamics processing in recording and live sound applications.
SETTING UP THE S•com
• Connect one or both sets of inputs and outputs to the designated connectors on the rear panel.
• Set the controls to the following positions:
EXPANDER/GATE
TRIGGER
20
STEREO
COMPRESSOR
50
0
OFF +10
dB
RELEASE
EXPANDER/GATE TRIGGER – OFF
GATE SWITCH – OUT
FAST RELEASE – OUT
COMPRESSOR THRESHOLD – +20dBu (fully clockwise)
SPECTRA - OUT
RATIO – 1:1
KEY SWITCH - OUT
ATTACK – 0.3 (fully counter-clockwise)
In this configuration, the S•com is simply passing audio at unity gain with no dynamics processing. It is a good
idea to check your gain structure at this point. Use the Input/Output meter to match the level.
Send a signal to either or both of the S•com's inputs and outputs.
•
Press the METER switch to see that the input and output levels are matched.
COMPRESSING A SIGNAL
S•com's Compressor section can be used for a variety of gain management tasks including printing signals to a
multi-track recorder, as a mix-down effect, mastering, and for increasing the loudness of a live PA system. To
begin compressing your signal, follow the steps below:
•
Follow the section above, "SETTING UP THE S•com" for normalizing the controls.
•
Press the CHANNEL IN switch (located in the middle of the unit) to the IN position.
•
Press in the AUTO switch (located in-between ATTACK and RELEASE).
•
Adjust the Ratio to 2:1.
