Audio effects node
Dynamics
A compressor that squashes loud peaks down once they cross a Threshold, tightening dynamics by a set Ratio, with Attack/Release/Makeup rounding out the feel.
What it does
Dynamics is an audio effect: it changes the sound that flows through it. It takes audio in and gives audio out.
Inputs and outputs
Inputs
- audio audio
- audio sidechain
Outputs
- audio out
Controls
Every control with a range can be driven by a modulator, a note, an audio level or a sketch.
| Control | Range or options | Default |
|---|---|---|
| mix | 0 to 1 | 1 |
| threshold | -60 to 0 | 0 |
| ratio | 1 to 20 | 4 |
| attack | 0.05 to 200 | 10 |
| release | 5 to 2000 | 100 |
| makeup | -12 to 24 | 0 |
