Dynamics
Compressor - Reduces the signal level above the Threshold (-60 to 20dB, 0.5 dB steps) value by the Ratio (1:1, 40:1, 1:1 steps) set.
Attack (0.1 to 2000ms, 0.1ms steps) adjusts the time to reduce the signal once the signal has been exceeded. Once the signal has
fallen below the threshold the Release (0ms to 10s, 1ms) time is the time to stop compressing the signal. Bypass feature and RMS
meter (Compression) included.
Side Chain Compressor - As above, but with side chaining & knee control. This allows multiple compressors to be tied together with
a reference side chained line. This allows the multiple compressors to be controlled from a single source for the control of dynamics
rather than just the input. This prevents one channel from being greatly compressed & other channels to not be. Keeps things even. In
addition, the “knee span” will adjust the rate that the ratio is applied after passing over the threshold. IE, if set to a ratio of 40:1, with a
knee span of 5db, it will hit the threshold, then take 5db before it hits the full ratio.
Peak Limiter - Reduces the signal level above the Threshold (-60 to 20dB, 0.5 dB steps) value by 40:1. Once the signal has fallen below
the threshold the Release (0.1 ms to 2s, 0.1ms) time is the time to stop compressing the signal. Bypass feature and RMS meter
(Compression) included.
