Attack refers to the time in which the compressor will take to reach maximum reduction. These settings both work on helping fade the effect in and out. The attack and release settings are adjusted in milliseconds. Anything lower than this set point will have no compression, allowing for you to only target the loud sounds and reactions. Threshold is the point or volume as to which the ratio compression will be applied. The ratio indicates the amount of compression to apply.
When working with compression it’s important that you understand what each setting does so that you can get the optimal experience. The compressor helps prevent audio distortion by reducing the volume when it reaches a predetermined level. Both of which may add to the entertainment of your content however there is a chance that the audio will distort when doing so. In moments of frustration you might yell in anger. When exciting moments happen you may scream in excitement. The compressor filter is incredibly useful, especially for people that stream or record video games. It makes the audio gradually lower till the mic is completely muted for a seamless effect. The release time works as a fade out when you’ve finished speaking. Having this set too short will cause cuts in audio between words when speaking. The hold time determines how long after speaking the audio will mute. Attack time refers to the amount of time the sound must occur before unmuting. You can change them if you’re not getting your desired effect, or want to get the best audio possible. The other three settings should be fine with their default settings. If you’re using a mechanical keyboard it might be difficult to cut out the entirety of your keyboard sound depending on the switches being used. If set properly you should only be able to see the mic activating when you are speaking. You can use the Audio Mixer preview to help you get these settings correct. This should be just below your normal vocal volume. The open threshold amount determines how loud audio needs to be before being unmuted. If the audio being picked up is below this point you won’t be able to hear it on stream or recordings. The close threshold determines the cutoff point as to where the audio will be muted. The name says quite a lot about what the Noise Gate filter does, it decides what noises should be transmitted and which shouldn’t. Whereas the threshold indicates at what level (in dB) the compressor will activate. Ratio indicates how strong the compression is. The two main settings that you want to be focusing on is the threshold and ratio. Step 8: Adjust the settings to what will best suit your audio, again this will take some experimenting to get right.
