NOTE
Brickwall Limiter is designed for the reduction of occasional peaks in the signal. If
the Gain Reduction meter indicates constant limiting, try raising the threshold or
lowering the overall level of the input signal.
Compressor
This plug-in reduces the dynamic range of the audio, making softer sounds louder
or louder sounds softer, or both.
Compressor features a separate display that graphically illustrates the compressor
curve shaped according to the Threshold and Ratio parameter settings.
Compressor also features a Gain Reduction meter that shows the amount of gain
reduction in dB, Soft knee/Hard knee compression modes, and a
program-dependent auto feature for the Release parameter.
Threshold (-60 to 0 dB)
Determines the level where the compressor kicks in. Only signal levels above
the set threshold are processed.
Ratio
Sets the amount of gain reduction applied to signals above the set threshold.
A ratio of 3:1 means that for every 3
dB the input level increases, the output
level increases by 1
dB.
Soft Knee
If this button is deactivated, signals above the threshold are compressed
instantly according to the set ratio (hard knee). If Soft Knee is activated, the
onset of compression is more gradual, producing a less drastic result.
