Compressor / Limiter
A compressor is a threshold driven process used to reduce the dynamic range of a signal by applying gain
reduction when the signal level exceeds the threshold and applying ‘make-up gain’ to keep the overall level
consistent. The compressor includes an automatic make-up gain function.
A Limiter is a dynamics process used to limit peak signal level by reducing signal level as it approaches or exceeds the
threshold.

When the signal exceeds the threshold, it will be attenu-
ated according to the compression settings.

The time it takes for the compression function to reach
full attenuation after the threshold has been reached.
The slower the attack time, the 'softer' the compression.
