Compressor

This compresses the overall output signal when the input volume
level exceeds a set value.
On/Off
This parameter turns the compressor effect on/off.
Lo Thres
This sets the volume level at which the lower-range compressor goes
into effect.
Lo Ratio
This sets the ratio of suppression of the lower-range output when the
input level exceeds the Lo threshold level.
Lo Attack
This sets the time it takes for the lower-range compressor to go into
effect once the input level exceeds the Lo threshold level.
Lo Release
This sets the time it takes for the lower-range compressor effect to
stop once the input level falls below the Lo threshold level.
Mid Thres
This sets the volume level at which the midrange compressor goes
into effect.
Mid Ratio
This sets the ratio of suppression of the midrange output when the
input level exceeds the Middle threshold level.
Mid Attack
This sets the time it takes for the midrange compressor to go into
effect once the input level exceeds the Middle threshold level.
Mid Release
This sets the time it takes for the midrange compressor effect to stop
once the input level falls below the Middle threshold level.
Hi Thres
This sets the volume level at which the upper-range compressor goes
into effect.
Hi Ratio
This sets the ratio of suppression of the upper-range output when
the input level exceeds the Hi threshold level.
Hi Attack
This sets the time it takes for the upper-range compressor to go into
effect once the input level exceeds the Hi threshold level.
Hi Release
This sets the time it takes for the upper-range compressor effect to
stop once the input level falls below the Hi threshold level.
* With the compressor, the level is automatically adjusted to the
optimum setting according to the threshold (Thres) and ratio (Ratio)
settings. In addition, since lengthening the attack (Attack) setting
may result in distortion, a buffer (margin) of -6 dB is provided. Adjust
the Mixer level as needed.

Mixer

Adjusts the volume of each frequency band.
Lo Level
Sets the volume level of the lower range after the signal passes
through the expander and compressor.
Mid Level
Sets the volume level of the midrange after the signal passes through
the expander and compressor.
Hi Level
Sets the volume level of the upper range after the signal passes
through the expander and compressor.

Limiter

This suppresses high-level signals to prevent distortion.
On/Off
Sets the limiter to ON or OFF.
Thres
Adjust this as appropriate for the input signal from your bass.
Attack
This sets the time it takes for the limiter to go into effect once the
input level exceeds the threshold level.
Release
Adjusts the time until when the limiter will turn off after the input
level falls below the threshold level.

Output

This makes settings that affect the overall output.
Level
Sets the volume level of the overall sound after the signal passes
through the limiter.
Soft Clip
This suppresses noticeable distortion occurring with heavy use of
the compressor/limiter effect.
Dither
This prevents the action of muting sounds from being too noticeable.
