Compressor interface
Touch this icon to activate/deactivate the Compressor for the selected channel. It will
light up to indicate that the compressor has been enabled. The display shows the
compressor setting in real time. Change the parameters by turning the Encoder (36) and
set the values of Gain, Threshold, Attack, Release & Ratio by turning the corresponding
controls or by touching the up & left & down & right keys to choose the function which
you want to modify. Please note that the parameters can be adjusted only if the
Compressor has been enabled.
The bar above the “ON/OFF” will light up when a signal is undergoing compression.
Adjust this control to set the compressor’s threshold for the selected channel. If the
amplitude of an audio signal exceeds a certain threshold, the compressor will reduce
the level of this signal. The adjustment range is between -30 and 20 dB.
Adjust this control to set the compressor's attack setting for the selected channel. The
attack setting is the period when the compressor is decreasing gain to reach the level
that is determined by the ratio. The adjustment range is between 10 and 150
milliseconds.
Adjust this control to set the compressor for the selected channel. Release sets the
amount of time it takes the compressor to return to its normal gain once the signal level
drops below the threshold. Release can be set between 10 ms and 1seconds.
Adjust this control to set the compression ratio for the selected channel. The ratio
determines the amount of gain reduction. For example, a ratio of 4:1 means that if input
level is 4 dB over the threshold, the output signal level will be 1 dB over the threshold. The
ratio can be set between Limit and 1:1.
Adjust this control to set the compressor gain for the selected channel or bus. When
compressing a signal, gain decrease will cause the attenuation of the whole level. By
using this Gain control you can recover the lost level and readjust volume. The
adjustment range is between 0 dB (no gain adjusted) and +24 dB.
The compressor grid shows the threshold setting in real time.
The meter on the left-hand side indicates the input signal level.
The meter on the right-hand side indicates the compressor’s degree.
Note:
You can also rename the selected channel by pressing and holding the CHXX icon.
