Parameter Setting Explanation
High Ratio 1:1.0~1:INF
Use this parameter to specify how
strongly the level should be reduced
when the band’s level exceeds the
“Threshold” level. “1:2.0”, for example,
means that level values above the
“Threshold” level are halved. “1:INF” is
useful if you set “Threshold” to “0 dB”
or thereabout. This produces a limiter
eect, which means that no signal level
will ever exceed the “Threshold” value.
This may help you protect the speakers
of the PA system etc.
High Level –24~+24 dB
This parameter allows you to establish
the desired mix among the three
compressor bands. Choose a negative
value to decrease the level, or a positive
one to increase it. Choose “0” for a band
whose level is OK as is.
Mid Attack 0~100 ms See “High Attack”.
Mid Release 50~5000 ms See “High Release”.
Mid Threshold –36~0 dB See “High Threshold”.
Mid Ratio 1:1.0~1:INF See “High Ratio”.
Mid Level –24~+24 dB See “High Level”.
Low Attack 0~100 ms See “High Attack”.
Low Release 50~5000 ms See “High Release”.
Low Threshold –36~0 dB See “High Threshold”.
Low Ratio 1:1.0~1:INF See “High Ratio”.
Low Level –24~+24 dB See “High Level”.
Split High 2000~12000 Hz
These two parameters specify the
frequency where two bands are
separated. The compressor has three
bands, and so there are two crossover
frequencies you can set: “High” between
the “Mid” and “High” ranges; and “Low”
between the “Mid” and “Low” ranges.
Split Low 80~800 Hz
