Hello, my bad....I have a question that is probably obvious as fuck.
The only compressor that I have at my dissposal is the one in Sounge Forge 4.5. It's all I got and will have for a while. So, I've done some reading up on compressors. I understand what the attack and release do. I understand what a compressor does. I understand how to use it as a limiter.

The controls that my SF compressor has are:

input gain, output gain, threshhold, attack, and release.

How do I plug in a ratio...say 4:1 or 2:1?

Do some compressors have a "Ratio Button"? or do I have to get my brain off it's lazy ass and figure it out myself?

...............flame away!!!!!!!
 
yeah compressors have ratio. It is the ratio you are going to compress above the treshold of your signal.
