Sorry guys, I know it's another compression thread, but this is confusing me and I'm just trying to understand it.
Say the threshold is -20 and the ratio 2:1 and the signal hits -10. It should end up being -15, right?
If the ratio was 4:1 would the signal be -17.5?
If the ratio was 5:1 the signal would end up being -18?
Am I on the right track or am I missing something?
What about if it was to go to -14 with the ratio at 5:1? Would the signal only affected for the first 5dB, and then allow the remaining 4dB to go through leaving me with a signal of -15? Sould it only attenuate the remaining signal if it were to hit -10?
Thanks.
