This compressor has an automatic make-up gain function. As Threshold is low-
ered and compression increases (as knob is rotated clockwise), output gain
from the module is increased automatically to compensate.

Release sets the amount of time it takes for gain reduction to
cease once the input signal drops below the threshold level.
Longer release times can smooth the transition that occurs
when the signal dips below the threshold, which is especially
useful for material with frequent peaks. However, if you set the
Release time too long, the gain reduction imposed by loud sec-
