Level

Range: - dB to +12 dB

Depending on you compression settings you may prefer

to lower the output level of the compression block by a

few dB. Use the compressor Level parameter to do so.

Sustaining and Percussive Types

The Sustaining and Percussive Types hold fewer handles

than the Advanced mode. Individually tuned these types

allow you two easily setup commonly used compression

styles.

Use the Sustaining type

to achieve the subtle

compression settings that will give you plenty of sustain

without “smashing” the sound too hard.

Use the Percussive type

to obtain the hard, obvious and

easy recognizable compression often achieved with

classic stomp box compressors

Though tuned differently the two types hold common

parameters.

Drive

Range: 1 to 20

A combination of Threshold and Ratio parameters that

sets the compression amount. Though auto make-up

gain is applied you may need to adjust the level slightly

using the Gain parameter when extreme settings are

used.

Response

Range: 1 to 10

Sets the time it takes for the Compressor to release the

compression. The lower setting the more you will hear

the compression.

Level

Range: -12 to +12 dB

Depending on the settings of Drive and Response

parameters you may need to adjust the Level.
