COMPRESSOR Page

The compressor allows you to compress the signal prior to the distortion stage.

Compression is often used to maintain an even volume level when using clean tones, and
is also used to increase sustain when using distorted tones.

ESCRIPTION

The COMPRESSOR THRESHOLD parameter determines the input level (in dB)
at which compression will begin. Lower settings of this parameter will result in
more compression. (-30dB to -6dB)

The COMPRESSOR ATTACK parameter determines the speed (in milliseconds)
in which the compressor will reach its maximum compression level after the input
signal has exceeded the threshold level (set by the Compressor THRESHold
parameter). (0 to 75ms)

The COMPRESSOR RELEASE parameter determines the speed in which
compression will cease after the input signal has dropped below the threshold
level. (.05sec to 2.05sec)
