TL Aggro Overview
This sections explains the basics of analog com-
pression, and how the TL Aggro works.
Analog Compression
Compression is a common audio processing
technique that is essential to many recording
styles. A compressor is a specialized type of am-
plifier that acts to reduce the dynamic range be-
tween the quietest and loudest peaks of an audio
signal. When dynamic range is compressed, this
highlights quieter parts of an audio signal while
taming the loudest parts. Heavy use of compres-
sion on percussion, instruments, and vocals is a
staple in musical genres such as rock and pop.
