The input channel compressor has four styles — Corrective, Adaptive, Creative and Vintage — which are selectable via the Mode button. While the dynamic section
is displaying the compressor, all of its controls are enabled except the hold control knob.
Compressor modes
Corrective mode (exponential peak - fast)
This is a peak sensing compressor (like many older designs) with exponential attack and release. It produces aggressive compression that gives good fast control/
limiting of dynamic material. It can be used to add color to low frequency signals, thus making it ideal for controlling extremely dynamic instruments like bass guitar.
The compressor tends to sound best with fast attack time settings that capture transients and with release adjusted to taste to either emphasise or reduce distortion
and pumping eects.
