MD 5.1
English Manual 89
Example: If the Reference Level is set to -18 dBFS,
a Threshold setting of -4 dB, will cause the com-
pressor to start operating at -22 dBFS.
Gain
Range: Off, -18 dB to 12 dB in 0.5 dB steps.
Adjusts the gain after the Compressor.
If the Auto Make-up gain parameter is set to On
in the Main page, these gains will already have
been adjusted according to the Threshold and
Ratio parameters.
Ratio
Range: Off to Infinity
Sets the Compression Ratio that must be per-
formed above the Threshold point.
Attack parameters
Range: 0.3 to 100 ms
Sets the time the Compressor takes to reach
the attenuation specified by the Ratio parameter
when the level exceeds the Threshold point.
Release parameters
Range: 20 ms to 7 sec.
Sets the time the Compressor takes to release
the attenuation of the signal when the signal level
drops below the Threshold point.
Meter Zoom
Press Meter Zoom to decrease meter range and
have a more accurate metering.

All – parameters
These parameters are equivalent to the “All” –
Threshold, Range, Ratio, Attack and Release
parameters.
LFE – parameters
These parameters are equivalent to the “LFE”
– Threshold, Range, Ratio, Attack and Release
parameters.

the Lo, Mid and Hi bands.
Limiter
The Limiter page is divided into three Sub-pag-
es. One covering the Softclip section, one for the
Full Range Limiter and one for the LFE Limiter.
