For a 1:1 de-compressor ratio, the processed signal isn’t affected by the processing: A 1 dB variation above the threshold at
the input is reflected by a 1 dB variation at the output.
Let’s apply now a 3:1 ratio. If the input signal rises above 1 dB the threshold value, the output signal rises from 3 dB: Here is
the de-compressor action. The input signal gain is increased by a 3:1 ratio above the threshold point.
The Knee sets how progressive is the start up of the compressor action In other words, It smoothes the transition point
between no processing and full processing. If the Knee value expressed in dB is increased, the progressiveness of the
action will be spread below and above the threshold point.
The Range value sets the processing maximum action. No gain variation can exceed this value.
General Settings:
Input Gain (1)
Unit: dB - Value Range: -48 / +48 - Step: 0.01
Default Value: 0 dB
Sets the gain applied to the dynamic processing input.
Output Gain (2)
Unit: dB - Value Range: -48 / +48 - Step: 0.01
Default Value: 0 dB
Sets the global gain applied to the dynamic processing output.
Invert Phase (3)
Default Value: Off
When this button is engaged, the phase of the processed signal is inverted.
This 180° phase shift is also applied on the Solo of the detector Equalizer.
Dry Mix (4)
Default Value: -144 dB
This slider controls the amount of the original signal that can be added to the processed audio. This feature is dedicated to
mastering works requiring both heavy processing and subtle control. The mix is done before the output gain.
Clipper Knee (5)
Unit: dB - Value Range: 0 / +3 - Step: 0.01
Default Value: 1 dB
Sets the smoothness of the transmission curve.
