Determines the maximum of automatic gain.
Limit the max gain to keep a natural audio dynamic.
Attack Time:
Adjusts the fade-in time to reach the target level.
A time that is too short will be uncomfortably heard with the audio peak when the speaker
begins to talk.
Release Time:
Adjusts the fade-out time of the signal when AGC is no longer working. This value is ignored if
the “Release button” is off.
A time that is too short will be uncomfortably heard with audio slack between the speaker's
words.
Sampling Time:
Average time needed by measuring the input level.
A time that is too long will make the AGC too insensitive on short peaks.
Level:
Level of the gain that AGC increased or decreased the input signal.
Example:
For example, we want to automatically adjust the gain of a type of vocal microphone.
On the "Input A" component, the input sensitivity is set to -40dB for standard dynamic microphone.
