NS3 1.42 update - Compression not functioning

Postby PeteHughes » 21 Aug 2018, 12:22

After the update to 1.42, compression appears to have no impact on any sound whatsoever.

Reverting back to 1.40 has re-instated the compression.

strange, to me it works perfectly ...... sometimes I do not understand why there are problems in some while others do not, or they have other problems that others do not have! it should be the same for everyone! are not the north stage 3 all the same? I do not understand! is absurd!

In my NS seems comp. works - increases lot of gain after turning knob hard right. But I still wondering what that FAST button doing.. Switching in - same, out - nothing changed..

“Fast” changes how quickly the compressor attacks the sound.

On normal mode, the attack transients of the signal will come through, and the rest of the signal will be compressed. Fast mode will compress the attack of the sound as well.

The difference is most noticeable on percussive sounds.
