4.4. Channel indicators

Each of the five input channels features two indicators. The green signal LED (4)
shows the presence of signal on the currently selected input. The indicator lights up at a
threshold of –40 dBV. The red peak LED (6) warns about the risk of saturation, that is
exceeding the recommended signal input level limit. This LED may sporadically flash without
risk of damaging the unit, but it should never stay lit continuously. This indicator lights up at a
threshold of 10dBV

4.5. Talkover

This device automatically reduces the signal level of the main output. This happens at
the first voice "hit" of the DJ or speaker on the microphone (or line) plugged to channel. When
the DJ stops talking, the music level comes up to the initial level. This function is enabled
through the TALKOVER (8) switch, and has efficiency, EFF (19), i.e. main signal level
attenuation (between 0 and 30dB) and recovery time, TIME (9), the time necessary for a
progressive come back to the original level (between 0,1 and 3 sec).
The Talkover can be activated by channel 4 if certain internal jumpers for the bus-
assignment are re-soldered. See configuration diagram.
This modification must be performed by an Authorized Technical Service.

4.6. Outputs

The COMPACT5 mixer has two independent outputs, OUTPUT 1 (30-31) and
OUTPUT 2 (29). Each one has its own volume control.
You must be careful when setting up the general output level of the mixer. The "clip"
display of the connected power amplifiers must never remain permanently lit, but do it only
occasionally by following the rhythm of the bass signals that are being played.
The OUT1 output (30-31) is balanced or symmetrical, and the pin-out of the
connector is as follows:
The balanced circuit simulates an output transformer, so if you wish to use OUT1 in
non-balanced mode, you should short circuit the unused pin to ground. Otherwise, the signal
will not have an appropriate level and quality.
The OUT2 output (29) is non-balanced or asymmetrical.
The COMPACT 5 has one recording output REC (32), which is pre-talkover, i.e. no
signals which activate the talkover are passed to this output, so no attenuation occurs).
