When you edit the parameters, all parameters of the master comp change to match

the type.

You can then make further adjustments to these parameters as necessary.
Depending on the settings of these parameters, the resulting effect might not match
the Type setting.

Split Freq

SINGLE,

10–16000 Hz

When the compressor bandwidth is “SINGLE”, this effect operates as a single-band

compressor only on the high range.

Adjusts the volume level at which compression starts.

Gain (*1)

-60–+24 dB

Adjusts the compressor output level.

Attack (*1)

Adjusts how long it takes before compression is applied.

Release (*1) 10–1000 ms

Adjusts how long it takes before the compression returns to normal.

Ratio (*1)

1:1–INF:1

Adjust the compression ratio.

Knee (*1)
