Controls

Threshold	Rotary Knob. Sets the leval above which compresion occurs.
Ratio	Rotary Knob. Sets the amount of compresion applied.
Attack	Rotary Knob. Determines the speed of onset of the compression. (NB - works only woth the Peak/RMS switch in Peak mode)
Release	Rotary Knob. Determines the speed of offset of compresion. (NB - works only woth the Peak/RMS switch in Peak mode)
Output	Rotary Knob. Varies the output level to compensate for the effects of the compression
Peak/RMS	Switch. Toggles between Peak Mode where the compressor responds to signal peaks, and RMS Mode, where the compressor responds to the average signal. The latter mode preserves more of the signals dynamic feel, but may not prevent clipping, where signal peaks exceed a device's headroom.
Hard/Soft Knee	Switch. With Hard knee response, signals are clamped to the limiting threshold as soon as they exced it. With soft knee response, the signals are clamped more gently, giving a more natural sound.
Bypass	Switch. One on each channel.
Stereo link	Switch.
Gate Threshold	Rotary Pot. Sets the level above which the unit will allow signals to pass.
Rate	Rotary Pot. Determines how fast the Gate closes when signals fall below the set threshold.
