2.1 – COMPRESSION / THRESH TRIM / SIDE FILTER / RATIO / STABILIZER / TYPE 

 

COMPRESSION: 

It acts by amplifying and, at the same time, compressing the input 

signal. 

 

THRESH TRIM: 

It is key in the “COMPRESSION” adjustment. With it we will adjust the 

sensitivity of the sidechain signal detector. It has a range from 0 to -24dB. 

 

STABILIZER: 

Adjusts the crossover frequency of the parallel process for low 

frequencies. It is dedicated to the “STABLE” selection only. 

 

SIDE FILTER: 

 Select the working frequency of the sidechain. The adjustment is 

intuitive, depending on the amount of low frequencies that we want to compress, or 

exclude from the process. It is active, in both “CLASSIC” and “STABLE” modes. 

 

TYPE: 

It allows us to adjust the compression up “UPWARD” and the compression down 

“DOWNWARD”. The latter is very linear, with a very smooth and progressive curve. 

UPWARD, is more oscillating. 

 

RATIO: 

Compression ratio, with a range of 1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 5:1, 6:1, 7:1, 8:1, 9:1, 10:1, 

30: 1. 

 

ATT: 

Attack adjustment from 0 to 100ms. 

 

REL: 

Release adjustment from 25 to 100ms.
