The time for the compressor to stop compressing when there is a reduction in signal level
(release) from a signal level above the threshold. This release time is active while the
signal is reduced by more than the release threshold setting.
The time for the compressor to stop compressing when there is a reduction in signal level
(release) from a signal level above the threshold. This release time is active while the
signal is reduced by less than the release threshold setting.
When the signal is reduced by more than this release threshold, the release time is set by
Rel Time A. Otherwise the release time is set by Rel Time B.
A lowpass filter in the control signal path. It is intended to smooth the output of the
compressor's envelope detector. Smoothing will affect the attack or release times when
the smoothing time is longer than one of the other times.
The time in ms by which the input signal should be delayed with respect to compressor
side chain processing (i.e. side chain predelay). This allows the compression to appear to
take effect just before the signal actually rises.
The compression ratio in effect above the compression threshold. High ratios are highly
compressed; low ratios are moderately compressed.
The compression threshold level in dBFS (decibels relative to full scale) above which the
signal begins to be compressed.
controls are additive (in decibels) and together may provide a maximum of 24 dB boost to
offset gain reduction due to compression.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The amount of boost or cut that the side chain bass shelving
filter should apply to the low frequency signals in dB. Every increase of 6 dB
approximately doubles the amplitude of the signal. Positive values boost the bass signal
below the specified frequency. Negative values cut the bass signal below the specified
frequency.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The center frequency of the side chain bass shelving filter in
intervals of one semitone.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The amount of boost or cut that the side chain treble shelving
filter should apply to the high frequency signals in dB. Every increase of 6 dB
approximately doubles the amplitude of the signal. Positive values boost the treble signal
above the specified frequency. Negative values cut the treble signal above the specified
frequency.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The center frequency of the side chain treble shelving filters in
intervals of one semitone.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The amount of boost or cut that the side chain parametric mid
filter should apply in dB to the specified frequency band. Every increase of 6 dB
approximately doubles the amplitude of the signal. Positive values boost the signal at the
specified frequency. Negative values cut the signal at the specified frequency.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The center frequency of the side chain parametric mid filter in
intervals of one semitone. The boost or cut will be at a maximum at this frequency.
For Opto Comprs SCEQ. The bandwidth of the side chain parametric mid filter may be
adjusted. You specify the bandwidth in octaves. Small values result in a very narrow filter
response. Large values result in a very broad response.
