Tube Compressor's Threshold and Level in dB?

Recommended Posts

Some people wrote on the forums that Level at 100% is 40 dB boost (?), so 1% is 0,4 dB.

 

Is it the same for Threshold? It doesn't seem so from my experiments.

 

Let's say I want to use TC as a "glue" at the very end of the chain, what settings guys would you recommend for it?

It depends on the particular patch chain, generally IMO (if using the single input approach) Threshold at 50 and Level at zero are a good starting point for the TC.

Then use your ears to adjust the TC to perfection for you.

 

Also, I suggest to put the TC just after the amp model and not at the very end of the chain after the time based effects, the time based FXs will thank you.
