Standard Compressor
The Standard Compressor allows you to create smooth compression effects. Drag the compressor up or down to change its position in the signal flow.
- Threshold
-
Determines the level where the compressor kicks in. Only signal levels above the set threshold are processed.
- Ratio
-
Sets the amount of gain reduction that is applied to signals above the set threshold. A ratio of 3:1 means that for every 3 dB the input level increases, the output level increases by 1 dB.
- Attack
-
Determines how fast the compressor responds to signals above the set threshold. The longer the attack time, the more of the early part of the signal passes through unprocessed.
- Release
-
Sets the time it takes for the gain to return to its original level when the signal drops below the threshold.
- AutoMakeUp
-
Automatically adjusts the output for gain loss.
- Auto Release
-
Automatically finds the best Release setting for the audio material.
- MakeUp Gain
-
Compensates for output gain loss caused by compression.
- Gain Reduction LED
-
Indicates the level of compression of the signal.
