A RELEASE If the compressor is selected, specifies the time (the release time) from when the key-in signal falls below the threshold level until compression is removed.

RATIO
If the compressor is selected, specifies the ratio at which the input signal will be compressed when the key-in signal
exceeds the threshold. If the expander is selected, specifies the ratio at which the input signal will be compressed when
the key-in signal falls below the threshold.
8
KNEE
Specifies the sharpness at which the output level will change. You can select from HARD or 1–5.
9
ATTACK
If the compressor is selected, specifies the time (the attack time) from when the key-in signal exceeds the threshold
level until the signal starts being compressed. If the expander is selected, specifies the time (the attack time) from when
the key-in signal falls below the threshold level until the signal starts being compressed.
0
GAIN
Adjusts the gain of the signal after it has passed through the compressor/expander.
A
RELEASE
If the compressor is selected, specifies the time (the release time) from when the key-in signal falls below the threshold
level until compression is removed. If the expander is selected, specifies the time (the release time) from when the key-
in signal exceeds the threshold level until compression is removed.
B
KEY IN SOURCE
Click this to select the key-in signal that you want to use.
The choices are the same as for GATE.
If COMPANDER-H, COMPANDER-S is selected
1
TYPE
Indicates the type of the currently selected compander (a combination of compressor and expander.) You can click here
to select the type.
2
LIBRARY
This button accesses the dynamics library. Clicking this button will open the DYNAMICS page of the Library window.
3
ON
This button switches the compander on/off.
4
Response curve
Indicates the response for the compander of the currently selected channel.
5
GR meter (Gain Reduction meter)
This meter indicates the amount of gain reduction produced by the compander.
6
THRESH (Threshold level)
Specifies the threshold level at which compression and expansion are applied. The input signal will be compressed
when the key-in signal exceeds this level. The expander effect will apply to levels below THRESHOLD + WIDTH.
