Title: Bell labs compressor design v modern
Post by: Tomás Mulcahy on February 06, 2007, 08:08:14 AM

From Rane pro audio reference:

"From our example, for every input increase of 1.6 dB above the hinge point, the output only increases 1 dB, and for every input decrease of 1.6 dB below the hinge point, the output only decreases 1 dB."http://www.rane.com/par-c.html

Author is describing the earliest compressors which use a hinge point, instead of a threshold. I'd like to hear that in action. Are there any modern devices that work in this way?
