Stereo Couple Switch - These switches change the 1046 from four independent compressors into two
stereo compressors. In stereo mode, Channel 1 is the master and Channel 2 is its slave, and Channel 3
is the master and channel 4 is its slave. Each of the Channel 2 and 4 controls and switch functions will
be overriden and controlled by the Channel 1 and 3 controls and switches, respectively, except for the
I/O Meter and Bypass switches. Also, Channel 2's and 4's Compressor Threshold, and PeakStopPlus™
Threshold meters will be disabled, while these slave channels' Gain Reduction meters will indicate the
amount of gain reduction occurring, as on their masters' Gain Reduction Meters. All 4 channels have
equal precedence as far as signal processing is concerned. The dbx 1046 uses True RMS Power
Summing™, an extremely accurate and musical way to combine detector outputs in a stereo situation.
The switch will light to indicate that the 1046 is in the Stereo Couple mode.
