Title: Ratio buss compresor
Post by: Toni Quintana on January 19, 2021, 07:34:27 PM

Hi, I own a 4024G ssl, recently I was told that the bus compressor ratios (2 and 10) are interchanged, the ratio 10 actually acts as 2 and the ratio 2 actually acts as 10.
Is this true? 
colud someone talk about it? 
maybe because of this, when I work with the ratio in 2, the compressor works a lot even with thershold high?

Thanks

Not on on my Gseries desk and others I use..   the threshold changes when you switch ratios (higher ratio higher threshold) looks to be intentional in its design.

is this what you are experiencing?

I don't speak English and I don't know if I understand what you're saying, I'm using a translator.  I will try to explain what happens to me. 
when I change the ratio from 2: 1 to 4: 1 the compressor compresses less, and going from 4: 1 to 10: 1 compresses even less.  this is correct?

Yes, as the ratio goes up the threshold also goes up. A lot of compressers do this. Just readjust the threshold to taste.
