The leveler is a hard-limiter. You can think of it as a fast, deep compressor. It doesn't do anything until you hit the threshold and then it reduces the gain by as much as the signal increases, keeping the signal level. The problem with leaving it on while making adjustments is that you can't see any overshoot on the output and you might be tempted to turn things up a bit too far. Better to leave it off until nearly last so you can see its effect and its effect only on the output level. -- Brian Lloyd, WB6RQN/J79BPL 706 Flightline Drive Spring Branch, TX 78070 [email protected] +1.916.877.5067 (USA) _______________________________________________ Flexedge mailing list [email protected] http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexedge_flex-radio.biz This is the FlexRadio Systems e-mail Reflector called FlexEdge.
