The config page of the channels dynamics section holds control elements
necesarry to set the channels compressor and gate parameters :
[1]
[11]
[12]
[8]
[2]
[3]
[5]
[4]
[6]
[7]
[9] [10]
[1] Comp On/Off Activates the compressor when illuminated.
[2] Gate On/Off Activates the gate when illuminated.
[3] Comp/Gate Selects either the Comp- or the Gate view.
[4] Threshold Sets the threshold parameter of the compressor. The lower the threshold, the
more signal compression is achieved.
[5] Ratio Sets the compression ratio parameter. A ratio of 1:1 doesn’t process the signal
at all, a ratio of 3:1 is a medium compression, 5:1 a heavy compression and
settings above 10:1 are called limiting.
[6] Attack time Sets the attack time of the compressor. The shorter this attack time is, the
quicker a gain reduction is applied to the signal.
[7] Release time Sets the release time of the compressor. The longer this release time is, the
longer it takes until the gain reduction is released and the signal becomes
unprocessed again.
[8] Gain Sets the makeup gain of the compressor. This is a simply signal amplification
stage that allows to bring the processed signal back to the desired level.
[9] Auto This button overrules the Gain parameter and automatically applies as much
makeup gain as needed to make the processed output signal as loud as the
