Item Control Function
1 Slow/Fast button Select the speed at which the PIE reacts to input.
2 IN level meter Input LED meters.
3 Threshold control Sets the level at which the PIE opens and lets audio pass. - 36 dB to 12.
4 Depth control Sets the level of attenuation from 0 dB (no change to -20 dB).
5 RMS/PEAK button Select RMS or Peak detection. RMS gives smoother results, peak works well for dynamic signals.
6 OUT level meter Output LED meters.
7 Power button Can be used to bypass the eect.
8 S/C External When engaged this uses any externally patched input signal to trigger the eect.
9 S/C LISTEN This button is used to listen to the sidechain, either external or with the internal lter settings.
10 Width control Sets the Q of the internal side change frequency. Turn CCW for tight control, CW for a wider Q value.
11 Freq control Sets the frequency of the side chain lter from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. This is dependent on the type chosen.
12 Type control Choose from Low Pass (LP), High Pass (HP), Band Pass (BP) or Flat. When Flat is selected the frequency and width have no eect.
Stressor Compressor
The Stressor is a characteristic emulation inspired by a famous modern compressor used on many recordings and in the live sound world. It can be used to tame
aggressive vocals or add pizzazz to at sounding drums. The Nuke ratio turns the Stressor into a brutish brick wall limiter that will not surrender.
Sidechain HPF and Sidechain EQ further expand the creative use of the stressor by tailoring the frequency response.
Tip: Set the Attack to 3, Release to 4 with a ratio of 3:1. Adjust the Input to give around 7 to 10 dBs of gain reduction on loud peaks. This is a great start for rock style
vocals. A ratio of 10:1 gives a classic 1176 Opto style compression.
Item Control Function
1 Input Control Adjust the input into the eect to control the amount of compression. Range 1-10.
2 Attack Control
Changes the attack time, fast settings to reduce transients, longer settings to add attack to the
source material . Range 1-10.
3 Release Control The release is variable from 50 mS to 3 seconds and varies depending on ratio setting. Range 1-10.
4 Output Control
Adjusts the output of the Stressor to control. Use output to make up any gain loss and for
comparison tests. Range 1-10.
5 Mix Control
The Mix control allows the blending of the dry signal with processed signal in order to get allow
transients to be mixed back into the signal for parallel compression. Range -0% (dry) to 100%
(wet).
6 Ratio Buttons Press to select the 8 dierent ratio settings.
7 SC HPF Control
The Side-Chain High Pass Filter cuts low information in the stressors sidechain by choosing the
exact point on the frequency spectrum where you want compression to be triggered without losing
any low-end.
