Active:
sets the plugin from bypass to active
status.
GR Meter:
displays the amount of gain re-
duction in dB.
Threshold:
If the input level exceeds this val-
ue, the compression process will start.
Feed Forward:
switches the feed of the side-
chain alternatively behind (feedback) or in
front (feed forward) of the actual compres-
sor section.
Attack:
the transient response of the com-
pressor. It determines the time the alpha
compressor needs to react to a peak.
Auto Fast:
a semi-automation. This function
shortens the attack time automatically on
fast and loud signal impulses.
Release:
the return phase of the compressor.
It controls the period of time that the com-
pressor takes to return back to unity gain.
Auto Fast:
the semi-automated regulation
of the time constants is also available for the
release controller.
Ratio:
the relation between the input level
and the output level. The printed values
double in feed forward mode.
SC Gain:
sets the integrated sidechain filter
from low pass to high pass with lots of useful
intermediate values.
On:
activates the sidechain filter.
SC Freq:
sets the center frequency of the in-
tegrated sidechain filter.
Warm:
a switchable sound shaping option.
Subtle, but nice.
Mix:
blends between the unprocessed and
compressed signals (parallel compression).
Link:
left and right channel can be processed
linked or unlinked on a stereo track.
Gain:
compensates the gain reduction
caused by the compression process.
