Tip: Try compressing a Bass Guitar using a Bass Drum to trigger the sidechain of the compressor. This will let the Bass Drum cut through a mix a little more.
1. Input Meter - Input metering to the compressor.
2. Gain Reduction (GR) - Gain reduction meter.
3. Threshold - Sets the signal level above which gain reduction starts to be applied. Range is from -50 dB to +25 dB.
4. Ratio - Adjusts amount of compression applied to signals above threshold. Range is from innity 1:1 to 25:1. When set to 10:1 or higher, the compressor acts
as a limiter.
5. Attack - Adjusts time for compressor to respond after an over-threshold signal. Range is from 0.2 ms to 100 ms.
6. Release - Adjusts time for compressor to recover after programme material falls back below threshold. Range is from 0.05 s to 3.00 s.
7. Make-Up - Compensates for the reduced loudness of a compressed signal. Range is 0dB to +24dB.
8. On Switch - Enables the compressor in the signal path.
9. Mode Selection - Selects compressor mode. There are four compressor types available: Corrective, Adaptive, Creative and Vintage.
10. Knee Type - Switches between the 3 types of Knee settings and controls how the compressor starts to apply gain as the signal goes through the threshold.
See Knee (below) for a description of the types.
11. Sidechain Control - To aid set up, the compressor has a sidechain listen that sends the sidechain onto a solo bus. The listen LED illuminates to warn you that
soloed material is from the sidechain, and not the main channel.
12. Filter Control - On Switch - Adjusts the sidechain lter frequency in the range 50Hz to 15kHz. (Visually, the arrow moves the sidechain parameters view in and
out of view)
13. Comp Graph - See “Compressor graph”.
14. Copy & Paste - Copy and Paste button. See Copy and Paste chapter for details.
15. Compressor SEL - assigns the compressor to the surface control (can be gate or compressor).
