Operating The C Com 16

USING THE ENHANCER

ENHANCER
13
The C Com 16's ENHANCER switch can be engaged to activate the EFR (Enhanced Frequency Recovery) circuit.
By engaging the ENHANCER, the C Com 16 EFR restores the high frequency content that can be lost when high
gain reduction is applied. The C Com 16 EFR achieves this by adding back the high-end of the original signal in
an amount that is equal to the amount of gain reduction.
• Follow the section above, "SETTING UP THE C Com 16" for
normalizing the controls and run a signal such as a CD
through the C Com 16.
• Set the PROGRAM switch to 13; STEREO COMP.
• Press the BYPASS switch to the IN position so that the green
LED is on.
• Turn up the SENSITIVITY control until you reach 12 to 24 dB of gain reduction.
• Engage the ENHANCER switch and listen to how the high end is restored.
USING THE KEY EXT I/O INSERT JACK

KEY INSERT

14
The C com 16 features a KEY insert jack which allows you to externally control the
compressors trigger signal. Using the KEY insert jack, you can patch in an external
processor to affect the compressors trigger. A typical application for external process-
ing of the KEY signal is inserting a graphic equalizer to filter. The KEY insert jack is
internally wired so the TIP is the KEY SEND and the RING is the KEY RETURN.
