VCA style compressor

Includes gain reduction indication and compression curve indication

• Mono and stereo input and output options
• -20 to +20 db input gain control
• The threshold can be set from -80 to +20 db to trigger the compressor
• The ratio controls the amount of db gain reduction per db over the threshold
• Attack and release control the time to reach full and zero compression
• Knee controls the speed at which full ratio is reached at the compression threshold
• Tail adds the option of less or more compression ratio after the threshold, the tail starts half way between the threshold point and 0 db.
• RMS duration in ms determines the average db to trigger the compressor. A lower results in faster db changes.
• HPF is a high pass filter to reduce lower frequencies triggering the compressor
• Sidechain adds the option to use another signal to trigger the compressor. The high pass filter will also filter this signal when available.
• Use mix to mix in the original signal
• Makeup is a -20 to +20 db makeup gain after compression, the original signal is not altered by the makeup gain when mixing in the original signal
