| Can someone explain to me in simple terms, how compressors work.
I know that they compress the frequencies at a certain level, but how does one determine that? | |

| Can you please specify the exact name that the object that you are trying to get information on?
I'm a little confused what you asking for. | |

I'm a little confused what you asking for. How compressors work. Another name is (Dynamic Range Compression). - Acano wrote:

| I did that already (Google)
What I need is an interpreter.
If there isn't anyone in the community who knows about sound systems, then it's ok. | |

| Side-chaining may use the level of another signal so that when the external signal is stronger the compressor acts more strongly to reduce output gain. This is used by disc jockeys for ducking - lowering the music volume automatically when speaking. The DJ's microphone signal is routed to the compressor's sidechain so that whenever the DJ speaks the compressor reduces the volume of the music. A sidechain with equalization controls can be used to reduce the volume of signals that have a strong spectral content within a certain frequency range: it can act as a de-esser, reducing the level of vocal sibilance in the range of 6–9 kHz. A de-esser helps reduce high frequencies that tend to overdrive preemphasized media (such as phonograph records and FM radio). Another use of the side-chain in music production serves to maintain a loud bass track without the bass drum causing undue peaks that result in loss of overall headroom. A linked stereo compressor without a sidechain input can be used as a mono compressor with a sidechain input. The "key", "trigger" or sidechain signal is sent to the left input of the stereo compressor while the signal that is to be compressed is routed through the right channel. Hope this clears it up. ![Soundboard Systems File:Compressor_Sidechain](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Compressor_Sidechain.svg) | |
