Using, Creating and Editing Voices Editing the Volume and Tonal Balance (MIXING CONSOLE) Master Compressor Compressor is an effect commonly used to limit and compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio signal. For signals that vary widely in dynamics, such as vocals and guitar parts, it "squeezes" the dynamic range, effectively making soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer. When used with gain to boost the overall level, this creates a more powerful, more consistently high-level sound. Compression can be used to increase sustain for electric guitar, smooth out the volume of a vocal, or bring a drum kit or rhythm pattern further up-front in the mix. The Clavinova has a sophisticated multi-band compressor that allows you to adjust the compression effect for individual frequency bands-giving you detailed sonic control. You can edit and save your own custom Compressor types, or conveniently select from one of the presets. ■ Selecting a Master Compressor type 1-3 Same operation as in the "Basic Procedure" on page 82.
