Dynamics

The Dynamics effect combines a Limiter, a Compressor and an Expander in one effect. The Transfer Curve Display shows what the effect is doing.

Dynamics window (Level History display on top-left available in Pro Plus edition only)

Attack controls how fast the Compressor and Limiter will attenuate loud signals, while Release controls the time it takes to stop attenuating after a loud signal ended. Low Release times can cause distortion at low frequencies.

Gain sets the amount of gain applied after dynamics processing has been done.

Limiter Threshold controls the level above which the limiting action takes place

The Expander can be used to attenuate background noise.

The Level History (Pro Plus edition only) can be reset using the F5 key.
