Parameter Description
MODE Section
Mode Selects between two operation modes: Classic (default setting)
and Feedback. Whereas Classic mode generates a cleaner and
more precise compression, Feedback mode introduces a subtle
change in transient shape and frequency responsiveness. The
memory-based envelope detection along with the knee-
dependent ratio and gain give this mode a typical vintage feel.
DEPTH Section
Threshold This value determines the threshold at which the Compressor
starts to work.
Knee This parameter defines how the Compressor starts to work: with
a low setting, the transition into compression is soft, whereas
with a high setting, the Compressor abruptly starts to work once
the threshold is reached.
Amount The amount of compression effect, often called ratio in typical
applications.
TIME Section
Attack Use Attack to adjust how fast the Compressor reacts on the
incoming signal: the more you dial it to the right, the slower it
will react. Longer Attack times let more transients through.
Release The time the compressor will take to stop compressing after the
input signal falls below the threshold. With longer release times
it takes more time to get back to normal.
OUTPUT Section
Gain Use Gain to adjust the volume of the resulting signal;
sometimes called “make-up gain” as it can be used to
compensate for any reduction in the signal induced by the
settings above.
