Since dbx Over Easy compressor/limiters
have no
distinct point at which the gain changes, the threshold
on such units is defined differently
from conventional
units. We define the threshold to occur approximately
mid way between the fixed gain portion of the curve and
the point where the curve "levels off" at the selected
compression ratio. At an infinite compression setting,
threshold
is
defined as the level at which 6 dB gain
reduction is realized. At this setting, the maximum
permissible output level is 5 dB above the threshold.
At
lower
compression settings, the threshold represents
somewhat
less
gain reduction. ( In contrast, a conventional
compressor/limiter
yields O dB of gain reduction at the
threshold; gain reduction begins just above the threshold.)
To see how the 165's Threshold indicator LEDs correlate
with the compression curves, refer to Figure 4.

SIGNAL CONNECTIONS
Make input and output connections to the barrier
strip on the rear panel ( Figures 5 and 6).
Input
Connection
For balanced or floating
lines,
connect the signal
leads
to the(+) and(-)
terminals, and the shield to the chassis
ground (
* )
terminal. For unbalanced I ines, connect the
signal high lead to the (+) terminal, and jumper the
(-
)
and chassis ground (~ ) together for connection of the
shield. When using an unbalanced connection, reversing
the(+) and(-)
input terminals will cause the output
signal to be 180° out of phase (reverse polarity) relative
to the input signal.
Level
Detector
Input Connection
For normal compressor operation, leave the factory-
installed straps connected between the
Detector(
+) and
the Input Signal (+) terminals and the Detector(
-
) and
Input
Signal(
-
) terminals. (Refer to Figure 5.) If you
wish to gain access to the
165's
Detector Input for
insertion of an auxiliary device, you may do so by
removing the strapping, wiring the auxiliary device's
output to the 165's Detector
Input
term
inals,
and
feeding the auxiliary device's input with the same signal
fed to the 165's Signal Input. In certain situations, the
auxiliary device may need to be inserted in the signal
path, not in the detector path.
In
such cases, signal is
fed to the input of that device, and also to the detector
input, and the auxiliary device's output
is
fed to the
165
signal input. Unless the installation is permanent,
this
connection can be awkward. Therefore, we recom-
mend wiring a few Tip/Ring/Sleeve phone jacks to the
165 instead, and
using
the jacks for Signal and Detector
Inputs as well as for the Signal Output. (Refer to
Figure 6.)
