Description of Controls
Threshold
The [THRESHOLD] knob sets the level where compression will
begin. As long as the input signal level is below the Threshold
level, the Smashup will do nothing to the signal. Once the input
signal crosses the Threshold, the Smashup will begin compressing
(turning down the level).
