The available release time values are 0.05s, 0.1s, 0.s, 0.5s, and Default (un-
lit). The unlit behavior is depends upon whether or not the compressor is ac-
tive. These behaviors are described below.

may vary depending on the compressor mode selected.
Release LED's Unlit – Compressor Active
When the compressor is enabled and all Release LED's are unlit, the release
characteristic of the active compressor mode in FATSO Jr. is used. This "de-
fault" FATSO Jr. behavior can then be manually overridden with the Release
button. However, when "pure" Spank mode is active, Release cannot be mod-
ified. When Spank mode is combined with another compressor mode, Re-
lease can be changed, but the results are typically very subtle.
Tip:
fault release setting of the FATSO Jr. if desired by cycling the release control
until NO LEDs are lit (which indicates the default FATSO Jr. time constant).

Release sets the amount of time it takes for compression to cease
once the input signal drops below the threshold level. Slower re-
lease times can smooth the transition that occurs when the signal
dips below the threshold, especially useful for material with fre-
quent peaks. However, if you set too large of a Release time, com-
