4
New cards

Release

How long it takes audio signal to revert from being affected to uncompressed

5
New cards

Knee

How quickly the compressor transits from not compressing the signal to compressing

6
New cards

The level coming out of a compressor won't be as high as it was when it went in because compressor is actively turning down parts of the signal

7
