Gain Reduction Meter
The Gain Reduction meter indicates the amount
the input signal is attenuated (in dB) and shows
different colors during dynamics processing:
Light Orange Indicates that gain reduction is
within the “knee” and has not reached the full
ratio of compression.
Dark Orange Indicates that gain reduction is be-
ing applied at the full ratio (for example, 2:1).
Threshold Arrow
The orange Threshold arrow next to the Input
meter indicates the current threshold, and can
be dragged up or down to adjust the threshold.
When a multichannel instance of the plug-in
has been configured to show only the Output
meter, the Threshold arrow is not displayed.
Phase Invert
The Phase Invert button inverts the phase (po-
larity) of the input signal, to help compensate
for phase anomalies that can occur either in
multi-microphone environments or because of
mis-wired balanced connections.
LFE Enable
(Pro Tools HD Systems Only)
The LFE Enable button (located in the Options
section) is on by default, and enables plug-in
processing of the LFE (low frequency effects)
channel on a multichannel track formatted for
5.1, 6.1, or 7.1 surround formats.
To disable LFE processing, deselect this button.
Dynamics Graph Display
The Dynamics Graph display—used with the
Compressor/Limiter and Expander/Gate plug-
ins—shows a curve that represents the level of
the input signal (on the x–axis) and the level of
the output signal (on the y–axis). The orange
vertical line represents the threshold.
LFE Enable button (Compressor/Limiter III shown)
The LFE Enable button is not available if
the plug-in is not inserted on an applicable
track.
