7 RATIO

If the compressor is selected, specifies the ratio at which the input signal will be compressed when the key-in signal

exceeds the threshold. If the expander is selected, specifies the ratio at which the input signal will be compressed when

the key-in signal falls below the threshold.

8 KNEE

Specifies the sharpness at which the output level will change. You can select from HARD or 1–5.

9 ATTACK

If the compressor is selected, specifies the time (the attack time) from when the key-in signal exceeds the threshold

level until the signal starts being compressed. If the expander is selected, specifies the time (the attack time) from when

the key-in signal falls below the threshold level until the signal starts being compressed.

0 GAIN

Adjusts the gain of the signal after it has passed through the compressor/expander.

A RELEASE

If the compressor is selected, specifies the time (the release time) from when the key-in signal falls below the threshold

level until compression is removed. If the expander is selected, specifies the time (the release time) from when the key-

in signal exceeds the threshold level until compression is removed.

B KEY IN SOURCE

Click this to select the key-in signal that you want to use.

The choices are the same as for GATE.

If COMPANDER-H, COMPANDER-S is selected

1 TYPE

Indicates the type of the currently selected compander (a combination of compressor and expander.) You can click here

to select the type.

2 LIBRARY

This button accesses the dynamics library. Clicking this button will open the DYNAMICS page of the Library window.

3 ON

This button switches the compander on/off.

4 Response curve

Indicates the response for the compander of the currently selected channel.

5 GR meter (Gain Reduction meter)

This meter indicates the amount of gain reduction produced by the compander.

6 THRESH (Threshold level)

Specifies the threshold level at which compression and expansion are applied. The input signal will be compressed

when the key-in signal exceeds this level. The expander effect will apply to levels below THRESHOLD + WIDTH.
