Control Input
ExOut-
Gain
Type Default Value
float32 1.0
Description: This sets the linear gain factor for the output of the
expander module. This gain defaults to 1 if the expander module is
not enabled.
CompAt-
tack
Type Default Value
float32 50.0
Description: The amount of time it takes for gain reduction to take
full effect when the input level exceeds the threshold. Values are in
milliseconds.
CompEn-
able
Type Default Value
boolean True
Description: This control determines whether the signal will be
compressed (True) or passed through (False).
CompSi-
deEnable
Type Default Value
Boolean False
Description: This control determines whether the envelope, with
which the compressor performs its gain control logic, will be based
on the signal from SideIn (True) or InSignal (False).
CompOut-
Gain
Type Default Value
float32 1.0
Description: This sets the linear gain factor for the output of the
compressor module. This gain defaults to 1 if the compressor
module is not enabled.
Control Input
CompRa-
tio
Type Default Value
float32 4.0
Description: The Input to Output ratio applied once the input signal
level rises above the compressor threshold. For instance, with the
default ratio of 4.0 (4:1) an input signal that is 4 dB above the
threshold will yield an output signal that is only 1 dB above the
threshold.
CompRe-
lease
Type Default Value
float32 500.0
Description: The amount of time it takes for gain reduction to dissi-
pate when the input level falls below the threshold. Values are in
milliseconds.
Comp-
Threshold
Type Default Value
float32 -6.0
Description: Any signal content above this level is compressed.
Values are in dB.
LimAllow-
Clip
Type Default Value
Boolean False
Description: This control enables a naïve limiter algorithm that
essentially acts to clip the signal if it breaks the specified threshold.
LimEnable
Type Default Value
Boolean False
Description: This control determines whether the signal will be
limited (True) or passed through (False).
