Users Manual
•
Slower attack times (turning the control counter-clockwise) will allow more
transient (“attack” of the note) through.
If you find your sound is lacking high frequency detail, try making the attack slower.
•
Faster attack times (turning the control clockwise) will create more compression
and make the entire note closer to the same volume.
o
Release:
•
Slower release times (turning the control counter-clockwise) will keep the length
of the musical note closer to what it was before compression.
•
Faster release times (turning the control clockwise) will increase the length of
musical notes.
If you hear distortion, particularly on low frequency sounds, try a slower release time.

Experiment! This is you music, your sound, take time to experiment and listen to how the controls change the sound.
