Corrective mode (exponential peak - fast)This is a peak sensing compressor (like many older designs) with exponential attack and release. It produces aggressive compression that gives good fast control/limiting of dynamic material. It can be used to add color to low frequency signals, thus making it ideal for controlling extremely dynamic instruments like the bass guitar. The compressor tends to sound best with fast attack time settings that capture transient sand with release adjusted to taste to either emphasise or minimize distortion and pumping effects.
