on a tube compressor there is no threshold setting, so can someone please tell me how a tube compressor works i.e. at what level it knows to start compressing?
cheers |

Errr, I hope you realise that T-Racks isn't a tube compressor....
Anyway, if it doesn't have threshhold it might have input gain. Which can be used the same way. |

No, its software. Its An emulation of a tube compressor |

| Andy, the term 'tube compressor' derives from hardware units that use tubes |
