Dear Knowledgeable People of Groupdiy,

I luckily got hold of two Siemens U273 Compressor/Limiter modules, and I am building an enclosure around.
They are working fine as they are, however I would like to add a gain reduction meter as well as a stereo link.

My questions: Is it at all possible to link two units to work together as a stereo pair?
And - there is an outpot for a meter, but it just specifies 150kOhm, 1,5V - any tips on what to use here?

Thanks

Georg
 
Best to include schematic for this sort of questions:

Stereo link not really meant to be used with this design - but perhaps just brutally linking the vipers of R7's - the threshold trimmer(s) with a simple switch would do that, providing both units are adjusted the same.

Thank you Jakob!

Of course I already downloaded schematics from your website :) As always a wonderful ressource.

Thank you for your input!
I will report how it's working out.

If I remember i linked the 2 meter contacts of both units together 18-18 20-20 to get stereo.

I can supply 2 meters for 15 euro (Belgium) each. I used them and they work fine.
