4.5.2 Limiter/Compressor view
The “DYN”processing interface manages the limiter compressor parameters
The first fader controls the Gate level of the processing (mutes the sound when the
signal is too weak)
The 2nd fader or the [Red-Square] button position controls the compression
threshold
The 3rd fader controls compression ratio
The 4th fader controls the Limiter level
The 3 right faders enable to set the Attack/Hold/Release parameters
✓Attack: attack time in ms
✓Hold: sets the time the gate will remain open after the signal has fallen below the
threshold.
✓Release: return time in ms
[On/Off] button activates/bypass the Limiter/compressor processing without
modifying the parameters
[Soft knee] button activates/disables the soft knee of the compression
[Reset] button reset all limiter/compressor processing parameters
[Cancel] button cancel all modifications and return to previous parameters

4.6.4 GPIO menu (available for AVDT-BOB-ADE8io/ADX8io
The GPIO interface allows to specify the mode and actions associated to the 4x GPIO.
[GPIO tabs] allow to select the GPIO. The selection is done just by clicking on it.
[Setting fields] enable for the selected GPIO:
1. To activate/stop the GPIO trigger and all enabled tasks for that GPIO
2. To select one of the GPIO Mode: “GPI”, “GPO”or “Fader”
3. To choose a Trigger Condition: “Pulse”or “State”(for the GPI mode only)
[Task fields] allows to define up to 8 independent actions associated to that GPIO:
1. To activate/stop the associated task
2. To select the “Group”of components: “Inputs”, “Mixers” or “Outputs”
3. To select the “Component” to control which depends of the group selected
4. To choose the “Trigger”type when available (depend of the component
selected)
Notices:
-The management of the GPIOs is running only when a GPIO refresh rate is set (cf.
chapter “General software setting menu”)
-When a GPIO is set to ON, it is analyzed at 3 different frequencies defined by
GPIO refresh rate (i.e. Fast, Medium, Low)
-The task(s) associated to GPIO depend of selected GPIO Mode
