Master Comp Parameter
Parameter | Explanation |
---|---|
Compressor Type | Compressor type |
Standard Compressor: A three-band compressor that’s simple and easy to use. FETComp-76: This models a classic studio-use FET compressor.

SW | Mastering COMP (compressor applied to the entire V-STAGE sound generator) on/off |
Comp parameters | The editable parameters differ depending on the type of compression you selected in Compressor Type. |
Standard Compressor
Parameter | Explanation |
---|---|
Template | Compressor templates |
Control | Adjusts the depth of the compressor Higher values produce a stronger effect. |
Input Gain | Amount of boost/cut for the input to the EQ |
Split Freq High | Frequency at which the high-frequency band (HIGH) and mid-frequency band (MID) are divided |
Split Freq Low | Frequency at which the low-frequency band (LOW) and mid-frequency band (MID) are divided |
Low Threshold | Volume level at which low-frequency compression begins |
Low Ratio | Compression ratio for the low-frequency range |
Low Knee | This function smooths out the transition from the uncompressed state to the state in which compression is just beginning. Compression is gradually applied starting just before the Low Threshold point. Higher values produce a smoother transition. |
Low Attack | Specifies the time from when the input exceeds Low Threshold until compression is applied to the volume of the midrange band. |
Low Release | This sets the time it takes to stop low-band audio compression once the input falls below Low Threshold, from the time that compression is applied. |
Low Output Gain | Low-frequency output volume |
Mid Threshold | Volume level at which mid-frequency compression begins |
Mid Ratio | Compression ratio for the mid-frequency range |
Mid Knee | This function smooths out the transition from the uncompressed state to the state in which compression is just beginning. Compression is gradually applied starting just before the Mid Threshold point. Higher values produce a smoother transition. |
Mid Attack | Specifies the time from when the input exceeds Mid Threshold until compression is applied to the volume of the mid-frequency band. |
Mid Release | This sets the time it takes to stop midrange audio compression once the input falls below Mid Threshold, from the time that compression is applied. |
Mid Output Gain | Mid-frequency output volume |
High Threshold | Volume level at which high-frequency compression begins |
High Ratio | Compression ratio for the high-frequency range |
High Knee | This function smooths out the transition from the uncompressed state to the state in which compression is just beginning. Compression is gradually applied starting just before the High Threshold point. Higher values produce a smoother transition. |
High Attack | Specifies the time from when the input exceeds High Threshold until compression is applied to the volume of the high-frequency band. |
High Release | This sets the time it takes to stop high-band audio compression once the input falls below High Threshold, from the time that compression is applied. |
High Output Gain | High-frequency output volume |
FETComp-76
Parameter | Explanation |
---|---|
Template | Compressor templates |
Control | Adjusts the depth of the compressor Higher values produce a stronger effect. |
Input Level | The input volume |
Output Level | The output volume |
Attack | Sets the time it takes for compression to start, once the audio input crosses the threshold. A value of 0.0 is the longest time it takes for compression to be applied. |
Release | Adjusts the time after the input signal volume falls below the threshold until compression stops. A value of 0.0 is the longest time it takes until compression stops. |
Ratio Mode | Compression ratio ALL: This works the same as if all buttons were pressed. |
Balance | The volume balance of the sound that passes through the compressor (W) and the unprocessed sound (D) |
Compress Sw | If this is “ON”, the compression effect is applied. |
