Introduction T he 8051 is an analogue compressor that provides six transformer balanced audio paths complemented by two sidechains and a key input. Input and output to the sidechains is assignable to and from the six channels. Assignable LFE filters on the input and sidechains along with the key input provide integrated bass management. Flexible si[...]

Compressor Controls LFE Filter (Filter to Channel) A 12dB/octave low-pass filter can be assigned to any one channel. This filter is applied directly to the input before the relay-bypass point, and its -3dB frequency is selectable from 80, 100 or 120Hz. 8051 5.1 Compressor User Guide Issue 2 Page 4 1 1 1 IN/OUT IN/OUT EXT A CTRL EXT B CTRL 2 2 2 3 3[...]

Bypass All channels have relay bypass. Bypass is from the output of the LFE filter to the input of the Output Level Control * . If a channel routed to a sidechain is bypassed, its connection to the sidechain is maintained. This means that other channels controlled by that sidechain are unaffected and allows a channel to control others without being[...]

Sidechain Link The sidechain link buttons route audio from each channel's sidechain audio path into one or both of the sidechain timing circuits. If a single channel's SC LINK A or B button is pressed, that channel will behave as a mono compressor. If another channel is then linked to the same sidechain, the timing circuit responds to whi[...]

Control Link While the SC link buttons control the audio inputs to each sidechain, the CV link buttons choose where the D.C. control voltage generated by each sidechain is routed. The CV link buttons also determine which gain makeup control affects each channel, in the same way that the SC link buttons assign the threshold controls. For the output [...]

SC Trims and Threshold Thresholds for each channel are determined by sidechain path gain which is applied in two stages. The two main threshold controls are first assigned to each channel with the SC Link buttons, providing a base threshold level for each of the sidechains. The SC Trim controls then allow threshold adjustment on individual channels[...]

EXT Control The EXT buttons provide an insert point in the control voltage signal, after the bias control but before routing back to the channels. During normal operation the control voltages generated by the sidechain are internally connected to the CV Link switched for routing back to the channels. In EXT mode the control voltage is taken from th[...]

Threshold Threshold is the level above which compression begins. Each channel linked to a sidechain (using the SC Link buttons) takes that sidechain's threshold. If a channel is linked to sidechains A and B the lower value of the two controls is used. The threshold controls have a range of -20dBu to +16dBu, adjustable in 2dB steps. Each channe[...]

Attack This is the time between a signal 6dB above the threshold level being applied, and the output signal falling to within 2dB of its final level. With slower attack settings compression is more dependant on the average signal level, while with faster settings it is more dependant on the peaks. Setting of 2ms, 4ms, 6ms, 8ms and 16ms are availabl[...]

Key Input A Key Input is provided to allow adjustable control from an external source. Like the sidechains the key input has a threshold level control ranging from -20 to +16 to set the intended level at which compression control is required. It can be used in several ways: q Injecting tone to provide a remotely variable base-level of compression o[...]

Mastering Compressor Controls (AM5292) The 8051 Mastering Compressor is slightly different to the standard 8051 in 2 ways: q It has 21 position detented pots for the Trim and Bias controls to aid total mechanical recall of the unit. q It has -1dB switches fitted to the Threshold and Gain Make-Up controls to allow for more accurate settings, for exa[...]
