Operation:

Input:

The input is passive with just relays, but by pushing the 'active gain' button you will enable

the active gain stage which enables you to change the input gain to your liking. In the

mid/0 position, there is no gain applied though it passes the active gain circuit. You can

change the gain in 23x0.5dB steps from +5.5dB to -5.5dB with stepped switches.

Inserts:

Insert 1 (blend):

Insert 1 has an active parallel/blend function.

With insert 1 you can blend the dry and wet

signal together. Most parallel processing uses

one control for blending from wet to dry and

uses a potmeter. The IM1.5 uses two separate

controls for wet and dry with stepped switches

instead of one potmeter. This way you don't

have channel imbalance, easy recall and way

better control over what happens to the signal.

For instance you can choose to compress the signal and blend in just a bit of dry signal. But

you also choose to use the dry signal and blend in a bit of quite aggressive compression.

The first steps on the stepped attenuators have 1 dB per step and the last steps have more

course steps, the lowest step is -33dB. The off position mutes the wet or dry signal.

Blend 1:

With the blend 1 button you can switch between passive or blend/parallel mode.

Insert 2:

Insert 2 is a regular passive insert.

Using wet/dry as active gain

This is a hidden feature, 'the Bob Katz mod'. It's possible to activate the blend

function even when insert 3 is not activated. The wet and dry knobs become gain

knobs and they will be behave like an active gain in between the inserts. Because

the wet control is not passing the insert itself, you can combine the wet/dry gains to

add up to 6dB gain.

Insert 3 and 4 (mid/side):

Insert 3 and 4 can be used for Mid/Side processing. When set to stereo, it will be 100%

passive, when set to MS, it will pass the active mid/side circuit.

Mid Side:

When the 'mid/side' button is engaged, both inserts 3 and 4 will work in MS mode. Left

channel is Mid (sum), Right channel is Side (diff).

Width:

With the width control you can change the gain of the side channel and so,

making it more wide or narrow. The width gain range is done in 23 steps

from -6.5dB to +3.5dB.
