Compressor
This is a stereo compressor.
• Attack
This governs how quickly the compressor will apply its effect when signals rise above the set threshold. If you raise
this value, the response will be slower, allowing more of the signal to pass through the compressor unaffected.
Typically, this is used for preserving the attacks of the sounds.
• Release
When the signal level drops below the set threshold, this determines how long it takes before the compressor lets
the sound through unaffected. Set this to short values for intense, “pumping” compressor effects, or to longer val-
ues for a smoother change of the dynamics.
•Thres
This is the threshold level above which the compression sets in. Signals with levels above the threshold will be af-
fected, signals below it will not. In practice, this means that the lower the Threshold setting, the more the compres-
sion effect.
•Ratio
This specifies the amount of gain reduction applied to the signals above the set threshold.
Phaser/Flanger/Chorus
This is a stereo Phaser/Flanger/Chorus.
D Select effect type with the Phaser/Flanger/Chorus switch.
The selected effect type is displayed on the Effect button.
•Depth
Sets the depth of the selected effect. To get a static sound, set Depth to zero.
•Rate
Sets the rate/speed of the modulation.
•Spread
Sets the stereo width of the effect.
•Amount
Sets the Dry/Wet amount of the effect.
q It’s also possible to modulate the start/center frequency of the Phaser/Flanger/Chorus using the “Chorus/
Flanger/Phaser > Frequency” destination in the Modulation Bus, see “The Modulation Bus section”.
