Cmp (Compressor)
When a high-level signal is input, this effect restricts the
output at a specified ratio.
fig.3-06
Sw (Switch) Off, On
Turns the compressor on/off.
Low Thre (Low threshold) -24–0dB
Mid Thre (Middle threshold) -24–0dB
High Thre (High threshold) -24–0dB
Specify the level at which the compressor will begin to take
effect.
Low Ratio 1:1–1:16, 1:INF
Mid Ratio 1:1–1:16, 1:INF
High Ratio 1:1–1:16, 1:INF
Adjust the ratio by which the output will be restricted when
the input level exceeds the threshold level.
Low Atck (Low attack) 0–100ms
Mid Atck (Middle attack) 0–100ms
High Atck (High attack) 0–100ms
Adjust the time from when the input level exceeds the
threshold level until the compressor takes effect.
fig.3-06a
Low Rel (Low release) 50–5,000ms
Mid Rel (Middle release) 50–5,000ms
High Rel (High release) 50–5,000ms
Adjust the time from when the input level falls below the
threshold level until the compressor no longer has an effect.

NOTE
The compressor provides threshold (Thre) and Ratio settings that
automatically adjust a signal to the optimal level. Since
lengthening the attack (Atck) may cause distortion, a -6 dB margin
is provided. Adjust the mixer (Mix) level as necessary.
Mix (Mixer)
Adjusts the volume for each of the three frequency bands
that were divided.
Low Lvl (Low level) -80–+6dB
Mid Lvl (Middle level) -80–+6dB
High Lvl (High level) -80–+6dB
These adjust, for each band, the volume level of the signal
that has passed through the expander (Exp) and compressor
(Cmp).
Lmt (Limiter)
This effect restricts excessive input levels.
Sw (Switch) Off, On
Turns the limiter on/off.
Thresh (Threshold) -24–0dB
Specifies the level at which the limiter will begin to operate.
Attack 0–100ms
Adjusts the time from when the input level exceeds the
threshold level until when the limiter begins to operate.
Release 50–5,000ms
Adjusts the time from when the input level falls below the
threshold level until the limiter no longer has an effect.
Out (Output)
Make settings related to the overall output.
Soft Clip Off, On
This quiets unwanted distortion that occurs when the
compressor or limiter effect is applied in an extreme fashion.
