Tube Compressor

The Tube Compressor with integrated tube-simulation allows you to achieve smooth and warm compression effects. The VU meter shows the amount of gain reduction. This compressor features an internal side-chain section that lets you filter the trigger signal.

Input Gain (-24.0 to 48.0 dB): Determines the compression amount. The higher the input gain, the more compression is applied.
Output Gain (-12.0 to 12.0 dB): Sets the output gain.
Gain Reduction LED: Indicates the amount of compression of the signal.
Attack (0.1 to 100.0 ms): Determines how fast the compressor responds. If the attack time is long, more of the initial part of the signal passes through unprocessed.
Release (10 to 1000 ms or Auto mode): Sets the time after which the gain returns to the original level. If Auto Release is activated, Tube Compressor automatically finds the best release setting for the audio material.
Drive (1.0 to 6.0 dB): Controls the amount of tube saturation.
Mix (0 to 100 %): Sets the level balance between the dry signal and the wet signal.
