1. INTRODUCTION  
You are now the Owner of an LTO CLE 4.0 Quad Compressor/Limiter. The CLE 4.0 is a very powerful dynamic processor.  
We have included in it several innovative circuit designs that make the CLE 4.0 a very versatile processor: smart and  
fast recognition of the program and very low distortion Voltage Control Amplifier (VCA)  
Feature List:  
Smart Knee Control Compressor (SKC)  
Soft knee or hard knee? This is the question! SKC combines both: In the "soft knee" mode you control the program  
material so that the compression will be the most musical and inaudible. On the other end, the hard knee function is  
used for better precision, limiting signal peaks with precision and will allow you to add creativity to the dynamic processing.  
This function also allows you to protect other equipment in the signal loop against distortion.  
The AUTO Function  
Your CLE 4.0 includes and AUTO function switch on the front panel. Thanks to the AUTO function attack and release times  
of the program materials are automatically analysed. Then the dynamic range of the program is heavily compressed in a very  
musical way so that there will not be any audible breathing or pumping effect.  
Smart Gain Control peak limiter (SGC)  
This function includes two important functions: Clipper and program limiter. The peak limiter will be activated above  
a certain threshold that is adjusted by the User and will radically restrict signal peaks. But what about if the  
threshold of the Limiter is surpassed only for a few milliseconds? SGC will turn on automatically and reduce the  
output signal so that you will not hear any distortion. Smart, isn't it? The SGC proves to be very efficient in loudspeaker  
protection and to reduce undesired peaks in digital situations.  
2. THE CONCEPT BEHIND  
2.1 Some technical stuff  
Good old analog technology: It will allow us to manufacture audio equipment with a very high dynamic range:  
up to 125 dB. But the dynamic range of digital equipment is more or less 25 dB less. A further reduction in  
dynamic range occurs with the use of tape recorders and/or vinyl records.  
2.1.1 It is not just Music  
Yes, a piece of electronic will produce some noise. When the current flows through a conductor this will generate  
a certain movement of the electrons and therefore: noise. And throughout the whole spectrum of audio. Imagine  
what happens when this inherent noise will be amplified. Yes, today one can use "low-noise" components but  
still such components will present a certain level of residual noise. For example with tape recorders it will not  
be possible to get an S/N (signal to noise) ratio better than 70dB. This level would not be accepted today by the  
increased sensitivity of the Listeners. It is possible to improve the performance of a tape recorder: Absolutely no!  
2.1.2 Introducing Audio Dynamics  
The human ear can detect the noise generating by falling leaves as well as the roar generated by the taking off space  
shuttle. Unfortunately no analog, nor digital device can reproduce such wide spectrum. Please look at Chart. 1 and  
you will see the difference if dynamic capacity of various devices when compare to the human ear. More problems  
occur when handling high level signals and low level signals. When you reach the high level limit you may incur in  
distortion because of the dynamic range of the instrument therefore a certain "reserve" must be maintained to avoid  
distortion. This reserve is known as "headroom" and it is usually set at 10-20 dB. Would not be easier just to reduce  
the operating level? Yes it would but you would put low level music signals at the same level of the basic noise floor  
so the overall quality of the signal would be highly deteriorated. Please look at Chart. 2 and note the Usable dynamic  
range (including headroom) versus high level distortion generated by peaks, and Noise floor level.

Low level signal drowned out by noise  
Chart. 2 The interactive relationship between the operating level and the headroom  
So the operating level must be as high as possible but not high enough to generate distortion.  
Tricky uh?  
There is a very easy way to obtain this. With the volume knob in hand you increase the volume  
during low passages and decrease the volume during loud passages. Unfortunately even the Great  
Houdini would not be fast enough to monitor carefully the speed of the musical signal and it would  
be impossible to detect signal peaks and consequently levelling them out. Manual control is therefore  
out of question. The answer is AGC (automatic gain control); a device that will monitor the signal in  
real time and that will adjust the gain for the best S/N ratio without producing distortion. So, the name  
of this device is "Compressor/limiter".  
2.1.3 More technical stuff about Compressor/Limiters  
Try to measure the dynamic range of musical instruments. You will find out that your ear will handle such range.  
Your audio equipment will not and distortion and overloading will be generated. To avoid these, compressor/  
Limiters will be used. Both Compressors and Limiters more or less do the same job but Limiters brutally limit  
the audio signal above a set threshold, while Compressors handle signal in a much more civilised way and  
over a wide range of levels. If an audio signal exceed the threshold set by the User the limiter will kill any audio  
signal above that threshold. Period! Also Compressors perform their function when the audio signal exceed a  
certain threshold but the signal is not killed brutally. The audio signal will be reduced in gain in proportion with  
the amount above the set threshold.  
2.2 Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA)  
The VCA is the soul of the CLE 4.0 and it is one of the best components available today in his category thanks to its  
excellent performances in terms of distortion, linearity, noise and temperature stability  
2.3 Inputs  
2.3.1 Take it easy: Balanced Inputs  
To make your life easy and clean we have provided CLE 4.0 with electronically balanced inputs. Even if  
you operate at high signal levels, hum and noise will be reduce automatically. There is also a servo-function  
that will automatically adjust the internal level when unbalanced connectors are detected. The correction  
if of 6dB and it will avoid differences in level in between input and output signal.

1. Threshold Control for Compressor Section  
With this control you will adjust the threshold level in the Compressor. The range is varied from -40dBu to +20dBu. When  
a signal exceed the set threshold by 10dB maximum the SKC will be applied, while above such level signal will be processed  
with hard knee compression.  
2. Ratio Control  
The ratio in between input and output level signals above the set threshold is determined by this control. When the  
SKC is applied such ratio is only expressed for the signals exceeding the set threshold more than 10dB. The range  
of control of the ratio varies from 1:1 to :1.  
3. Output Gain Control  
You can increase or decrease the output signal by a maximum of 20dB. IN such a way you can recover a level lost  
during the compression process.  
4. Bypass Switch  
Push this switch and you will deactivate the corresponding channel. You can also use the bypass switch to make an A/B  
comparison in between processed and unprocessed signal.  
5. Smart Switch  
A hard knee compression is turned into SKC by mean of this switch. If you wish to get a compression that is quite  
inaudible use the SKC mode through the Smart switch.  
6. Meter Switch for input / output  
When this switch is ON the Meter will read the output level. When the switch is OFF, the Meter will read the input  
level.  
7. Level Meter for Input / Output  
You can adjust the operating level by mean of the Operating Level Switch and choose -10dBV or +4dBu. Consequently  
the Meter will be the Input or Output Level with a range from -24dB to +18dB.  
8. Meter for Gain Reduction  
The gain reduction will be shown by this Meter with a range of 1 to 30dB.

13. Audio In and Out  
You can input and output the audio signal in the CLE 4.0 via XLR connectors or 1/4" jack.  
14. Operating Level Control  
Choose +4dBu when using CLE 4.0 in professional recording studios or -10dBV when using home recording equipment.  
The Input/Output Meter will automatically self-adjust to the chosen Operating Level.  
4. READY TO ROLL?  
4.1 Compressor Section  
Sophisticated Voltage Controlled Amplifiers (VCA) are responsible of the control of dynamics in the CLE 4.0 The operating  
range of our VCA is more than 60dB. This mean that the input level or the output level can be increased or decreased in a  
range of 60dB. Signals below the set threshold will not be reduced, so the dynamic control will be activated as soon as the  
signal exceed the threshold level. Gain reduction will be proportioned to the amount of the signal above the set threshold  
level.  
4.1.1 The Threshold Control  
The compressor threshold control sets the point where the input level starts to be reduced. Let's say the level  
is +12dBu and the threshold control is set at +2dBu: In this case up to 10dB can be compressed. If the input  
level is the same and the control is set at 10dBu the maximum compression will be 22dB, The operating range  
of the threshold control is -40 to +20dBu. Turn the threshold control fully clockwise and you will get a threshold  
level of +20dBu.  
You must remember that the degree and the type of compression not only depend by the threshold control  
but also by other controls such as Ratio, Attack and Release. .

4.1.2 Ratio Control  
This control sets the change of input level to output level but only for the signals that exceed the threshold.  
The scale of the ratio control on the front panel (calibrated in dB) indicates how much input level is required  
to increase the output level by 1dB.  
If you have a ratio equal to 1:1 you will get the same level of input and output signal: So, no level change.  
If you have a ratio of 2:1 this means that for every 2dB increase of the input level (above threshold) you  
will get an increase of output level of 1dB. ON the same way, a ratio of 10:1 means that for every 10dB  
increase of the input level (above threshold) you will get an increase in output level equal to 1dB, and so on.  
You need to be aware that higher ratio settings produce less natural sounds so if you wish a more minute  
effect on the dynamic range of a program you should use a Ratio of 4:1 or lower.  
With the SKC circuit (Smart Knee Control) you can avoid aggressive compression generated by using high  
ratios. How we achieve this? Introducing a "soft knee" curve in the range of up to 10dB above the threshold  
level. Hard Knee compression is then used beyond this range.

4.1.4 Bypass Switch  
This switch simply turns off the correspondent channel. This is useful to compare quickly the processed and  
unprocessed signal.  
4.1.5 Gain Control LED Meter  
This consists of 8 LED on the front of the CLE 4.0. Through this LED Meter you can visualise the amount of gain  
reduction at any given time.

4.2 The Peak Limiter Section  
How fast is the compressor to react to a signal which is above the threshold point? This is determined by the  
attack time. A longer attack time is advisable to process low frequencies while shorter attack time is preferable  
for high frequencies. IN this way you will avoid undesired dynamic distortion. But what about if you are mixing  
a program with a wide range of frequencies? IN this case you should choose a setting that would benefit the  
low frequency better. Well, life is not that easy for conventional compressor/limiters. Ok you handle an audio  
signal made by a wide range of frequencies and you have chosen a longer attack time. But, if are using your  
CLE 4.0 as a limiter the fast high frequencies will pass through untouched because the attack time is too slow  
and such transients could cause distortion when the unit is connected to broadcast devices or taper recorders.  
The solution in CLE 4.0 is represented by our Smart Gain Control (SGC) limiter circuit. The curve in bold is the  
output signal and the dashed curve above it is the input signal. The area in between the two is the amount of  
gain reduction.  
The unit will activate the limiter when the signal exceeds the threshold for more than 20 microseconds. Then  
1 second after that the signal is below threshold again, reduction goes back to 0dB and in this case input and  
output signals are again identical.
