Adjusting the Overall Volume Using the Master Compressor CVP-509 CVP-505 CVP-503 CVP-501 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. Editing Master Compressor Settings Select the CMP tab in step 2 on page 88. Displays the Gain Reduction (com- 1 pressed level) and output level. Mixing Console - Editing the Volume and Tonal Balance - 2 34 5 1 [G] ON/OFF Turns the Master Compressor effect on or off. 2 [2 ▲▼]/ TYPE Selects a Master Compressor type. 8 [3 ▲▼] 3 [4 ▲▼] THRESHOLD Determines the threshold (minimum level at which OFFSET compression starts). 4 [5 ▲▼] RATIO OFFSET Determines the ratio of compression (how much the dynamic range is compressed). 5 [7 ▲▼] GAIN OFFSET Determines the output level.
