7.  Meter 0: 

The VU-meters are equipped with trim pots, accessible through small holes in the front 
plate. Use a suitable screwdriver to set the zero point for calibration. 
1. When the unit is turned off check the location of the needle, if not on zero use the 
calibration screw on the meter to adjust.  
2. Turn unit on and wait 10min.  Now use the Meter 0 trim pot and set needle to 0. 
 

8.  Bypass:

 

The 

comp.two

 has one “hard bypass” switch per channel. If activated, the complete 

circuitry including tubes, transformers and capacitors are excluded and the input is 
directly connected to the output. In bypass-mode you hear the unprocessed original 
signal for A/B-comparison. 
 

9.  Dual Mono/Link On: 

The the link-on-mode is helpful for stereo processing. When this mode is activated 
the channel with higher level determines the compression for both channels. For perfect 
tonal balance it is important that threshold- attack- and release-values are identical. To 
adjust volume differences between the channels, use input and output controls. 

The dual mono-mode offers two precise separated channels with an individual power 
supply (“real” dual mono). Therefore the 

comp.two

 has the ability to process two mono-

signal separately. 
 

10. VU-Meter 

The backlit VU-meters display gain reduction. The logarithmic scale shows values 
between 0 and -20 dB. 1-dB-steps are marked up to a gain reduction of 4 dB. This is the 
critical range for gain reduction.
