JTHRESHOLD (Threshold level)
Specifies the threshold level at which the compressor
will operate. The input signal will start being com-
pressed when the key-in signal exceeds this level;
compression will be removed when the signal falls
below this level.
KRATIO
Specifies the ratio at which the input signal will be
compressed when the key-in signal exceeds the thresh-
old level.
LATTACK (Attack time)
Specifies the time from when the key-in signal exceeds
the threshold level until compression begins.
MRELEASE (Release time)
Specifies the time from when the key-in signal falls
below the threshold level until compression is
removed.
NGAIN
Specifies the output level gain.
OKNEE
Select the sharpness at which the output level changes;
the range is HARD or 1–5. HARD produces the sharp-
est change, and 5 produces the most gradual change.
These screens show the compressor settings for all output
channels. Here you can also copy compressor settings
between output channels.
ACompressor graph
This mini-graph shows the approximate compressor
response for each output channel.
When you click the graph at which the cursor is cur-
rently located, the COMP PARAM screen for that
channel will appear.
In this screen you can drag and drop the mini-graph
from the desired channel to copy its compressor set-
tings. (When you drag and drop the mini-graph, a
