Using the Compressor
About the master compressor
The MGP32X/MGP24X features two master compressors: Comp
and Multiband. The Comp type has a simple single band, while
the Multiband type has three separate bands. The master com-
pressor controls peak level by applying the compressor to the ste-
reo L/R bus, and raises the overall sound level. There are three
preset programs installed, and you can save up to five user pro-
grams as desired.
Specifying the compressor settings
1. Press the COMP button below the display
repeatedly if necessary until the (1/4) MODE
page appears.
2. Rotate Knob 1 to select “COMP ON,” and
rotate Knob 2 to set to “ON.”
3. Rotate Knob 1 to select “Position” (of the
insert), and rotate Knob 2 to set to “PostFader”
or “PreFader.”
4. Rotate Knob 1 to select “Type,” and rotate
Knob 2 to set to “Comp” (single band) or “Mul-
tiband.”
If you select a different setting from the current setting, the
parameter value flashes.
5. Press Knob 2 while the parameter value is
flashing.
The screen prompts you to change the compressor type.
6. Press Knob 2 to select “OK,” or Knob 1 to can-
cel.
The type is changed.
Specifying the threshold
1.
Press the COMP button below the display
repeatedly if necessary until the (2/4) THRESH-
OLD page appears.
2. Rotate Knob 1 to specify the threshold, while
checking the gain reduction meter on the right
side of the screen to determine the compres-
sor depth.
If Multiband is selected, the thresholds at H (High), M (Mid)
and L (Low) are linked.
