MASTER
G/R meters show
the
amount
of
gain reduction
in
the
"master"
compres-
sor,
which processes audio
above 200Hz.
TOTAL
shows peak
value of gain reduction
in
dB. 0
on
this
meter
indicates
10dB
of
gain reduction.
LIMITING shows
the
amount
of fast
gain reduction
above and
beyond
that
provided
by slow compression.
0
on
this
meter indicates
no
additional
limiting,
and 3
(for
example)
indicates
an extra
3dB
peak-limiting
gain reduction
over
that indicated
by the
COMPRESSION
meter,
which
shows
the
amount
of
gain reduction
resulting
from slow compression
in
dB. 0
on
the
COMPRESSION
meter corresponds
to
10dB
of
gain reduction.
TOTAL BASS
G/R
meter shows
the
amount
of
gain reduction
in
the "bass"
com-
pressor,
which processes
audio
below 200Hz.
Because almost
all
of
the bass gain
reduction
is
achieved
with
slow compression,
there
is
no need
for
separate peak-
limiting
and compression meters. 0
corresponds
to
10dB
of
gain reduction.
