Multipressor Parameters
The parameters in the Multipressor window are grouped into three main areas: the
upper graphic display section, the lower set of controls for each frequency band, and
the output parameters on the right.
Graphic Display Section
 Graphic display: Each frequency band is represented graphically. The amount of gain
change from 0 dB is shown graphically by the blue bars. For active bands, the band
number appears in the center of its area. You can adjust each frequency band
independently in the following ways:
 Drag the horizontal bar up or down to adjust the gain makeup for that band.
 Drag the vertical edges left or right band to set the crossover frequencies for that
band (which adjusts the band’s frequency range).
 Crossover fields: Sets the crossover frequency between adjacent bands.
 Gain Make-up fields: Sets the amount of the gain makeup for each band.
Frequency Band Section
Below the graphic band display are value fields and other parameters for controlling
each frequency band:
 Compr Thrsh fields (short for Compression Threshold): Sets the compression threshold
for the selected band. Setting the parameter to 0 dB results in no compression of the
band.
 Compr Ratio fields (short for Compression Ratio): Sets the compression ratio for the
selected band. Setting the parameter to 1:1 results in no compression of the band.
