Bypassing frequency bands
Each frequency band can be by-passed using the "B" button in each compressor section.
Soloing frequency bands
A frequency band can be soloed using the "S" button in each compressor section. Only one
band can be soloed at a time.
Using the Compressor section
By moving breakpoints or using the corresponding knobs, you can specify the Threshold and
Ratio. The first breakpoint from which the line deviates from the straight diagonal will be the
threshold point.
For each of the four bands the following compressor parameters are available:
Threshold (-60 to 0dB)
Determines the level where Compressor "kicks in". Signal levels above the set threshold
are affected, but signal levels below are not processed.
Ratio (1000 to 8000) (1:1 to 8:1)
Determines the amount of gain reduction applied to signals over the set threshold. A
ratio of 3000 (3:1) means that for every 3dB the input level increases, the output level
increases by only 1dB.
Attack (0.1 to 100ms)
Determines how fast the compressor responds to signals above the set threshold. If
the attack time is long, more of the early part of the signal (attack) will pass through
unprocessed.
Release (10 to 1000ms or Auto mode)
Sets the amount of time it takes for the gain to return to its original level when the
signal drops below the threshold level. If the Auto button is activated, the compressor
will automatically find an optimal release setting that varies depending on the audio
material.
The Output Control
The Output knob controls the total output level that the MultibandCompressor passes on to
Wavelab. The range is from -24 to +24dB.
