The Attack Time control adjusts the speed with which the compressor
responds to peaks in the input signal. The range of the control is from 0
milliseconds to 200 milliseconds.
NOTE: While using the compressor and the de-esser simultaneously, be
sure that the attack time of the compressor is long enough not to
interact with the de-esser.
Compressor Release Page
Compressor Release
200 ms
The Release Time control sets the time it takes for the compressor’s gain to
return to normal after the input level drops below the threshold. The
range of the control is from 0 milliseconds to 3,000 milliseconds.
Compressor Knee Page
Compressor Knee: 40
(0 is hard)
The Knee control adjusts the sharpness of the transitions between
uncompressed and compressed signals. As a signal increases in level
through the threshold, the compressor will begin to apply gain reduction.
With a soft knee (100), that change in gain will be gradual and therefore
less noticeable.
The range of the control is from 0 (hard knee) to 100 (soft knee).
Gate Page
Th:-36dB
Gate Ratio: 1:20
This page allows you to set the main Gate parameters. Use the cursor
buttons to move from field to field and the Data Knob to set each param-
eter. For ease in setting the threshold, this page includes a display of the
incoming signal level and a graphic indication of the currently selected
threshold. The threshold should be set just above the level of the signal
that you wish to gate.
