Available Release times are discrete values of 100ms, 300ms, 600ms, 1.2s,
and Auto. The Auto release characteristic for SSL G Bus Compressor has a
unique quality that is optimized for program material.
Ratio defines the amount of gain re-
Ratio
duction to be processed by the
compressor. For example, a value
of 2 (expressed as a 2:1 ratio) re-
duces the signal above the thresh-
old by half, with an input signal of
20 dB being reduced to 10 dB. The
available Ratio values are 2:1, 4:1, and 10:1.
The Power button determines whether the plug-in is active. Click the Power
Power (IN)
button to toggle the processor state. Power is useful for comparing the pro-
cessed sound to that of the original signal.

Fade
The SSL G Bus Compressor provides a
Fade function that, upon activation,
automatically reduces the plug-in out-
put to minimum within a specified time
period. This function enables ex-
tremely smooth-sounding fade outs
(and fade ins), plus it can be automated as well.
The Fade function processes the signal at the output of the compressor. The
fade signal level that is output has an exponential curve.
UAD Powered Plug-Ins Manual
The Gain Reduction VU-style meter displays
the amount of gain reduction occurring in
the compressor. Higher values indicate more
gain reduction.
Increase the signal level into the plug-in
and/or lower the Threshold control to in-
crease gain reduction.
