Figs. 5 and 6 The effect described in Fig. 4 can be eliminated with the Release Delay parameter. The release is de-
layed for a certain time and thus can not influence the end of the burst anymore. In Fig 5 the release delay is not
quite long enough, while in Fig. 6 there is no release influence visible anymore.

The following figures show the effect of the automatic release time algorithm and the Average parameter.

Fig. 7 A very short burst duration, like a short peak in the music. The Release Fast, Average and Release Slow pa-
rameters are set to typical values. Fig. 7 shows that after a short peak the Release Fast time is chosen, so that the
short peak does not have much influence on the programme after it.

Fig. 8 The burst is now longer which gives it more influence on the average measurement (averaging oft he signal).
First there is a Release Fast portion followed by a short segment of Release Slow.
