Mid-Side Compressor

This effect allows the left/right signals that have similar phase to be adjusted to a different sense of volume than the left/right signals that have different phase.

Parameter

Value

Explanation

M Comp Switch

OFF, ON

Switches whether to adjust the sense of volume for left/right input signals that are nearly (or fully) in phase.

M Attack

0–124

Sets the time from when the input exceeds the Threshold until the volume starts being compressed

M Release

0–124

Adjusts the time after the signal volume falls below the Threshold Level until compression is no longer applied.

M Threshold (*1)

-60–0 [dB]

Adjusts the volume at which compression begins.

M Knee

0–30 [dB]

This is a function that smooths the onset of compression from the uncompressed state.

It gradually applies compression starting earlier than Threshold. Higher values produce a smoother transition.

M Ratio

1:1, 1.5:1, 2:1, 4:1, 16:1, INF:1

Compression ratio

M Post Gain

0–+18 [dB]

Adjusts the output gain.

S Comp Switch

OFF, ON

Switches whether to adjust the sense of volume for left/right input signals whose signals are considerably out of phase

S Attack

0–124

Sets the time from when the input exceeds the Threshold until the volume starts being compressed

S Release

0–124

Adjusts the time after the signal volume falls below the Threshold Level until compression is no longer applied.

S Threshold

-60–0 [dB]

Adjusts the volume at which compression begins.

S Knee

0–30 [dB]

This is a function that smooths the onset of compression from the uncompressed state.

It gradually applies compression starting earlier than Threshold. Higher values produce a smoother transition.

S Ratio

1:1, 1.5:1, 2:1, 4:1, 16:1, INF:1

Compression ratio

S Post Gain

0–+18 [dB]

Adjusts the output gain.
