Gain Reduction

Meter

The Gain Reduction meter dis-
plays the amount of gain re-
duction occurring within the
compressor.

More blue bars moving to the left indicate more gain reduction is occurring.

The meter range is from –16 dB to 0 dB. Signal peaks are held for 3 seconds
before resetting.

Power

The Power switch determines whether the plug-in is active.
Click the toggle button or the UA logo to change the state.

When the Power switch is in the Off position, plug-in process-
ing is disabled and UAD DSP usage is reduced (unless

“UAD-

2 DSP LoadLock” on page 74

is enabled). When the plug-in is bypassed with

this switch (but not by the host bypass), the I/O meters and the Input Level
knob remain active.

Extra Presets

Extra presets for the UAD Precision Buss Compressor that are not in the factory
bank can be downloaded from our website. These presets replicate all the
fixed attack and release setting combinations that are found on large console
VCA-style compressors. The extra presets can be found here:
