Compressor Attack

slower the attack time, the 'softer' the compression.
Compressor Release Time
Adjust the compressor release time.
The time it takes for the compression function to return to zero attenuation after full attenuation has been
reached.

Compression Ratio

The ratio between the normal signal level and the attenuated (compressed) signal level. The higher the ratio, the
more compression is applied.
Compressor Makeup Gain
Adjust the post-compression makeup gain.
Gain applied after the compressor to account for level lost in compression.
Compressor Automatic Makeup Gain

When activated, this will apply makeup gain after the compressor automatically, depending on the settings of the
