I have a dbx166A compressor. I read about setting attack and release times with compressors however I don not have an "attack" setting on my 166.
The controls it has are:
For the Expander/Gate section a threshold in db's and a release from fast to slow.
For the Compressor section a threshold in db, ratio and output gain.
For the Limiter it has a peak stop limiter labeled from 0 to 20.
Do any of these correspond to an "attack" setting.
And what is the general opinion of the 166 as far has quality for home recording/small project use?
Any help is much appreciated - wish I knew 1% of what you guys here know.
