dbx 266xs Getting Started Section 2 Compressor ATTACK and RELEASE Control The ATTACK control sets the amount of time it takes the 266xs to begin compressing a signal once the detector has sensed a signal above threshold.

A very fast ATTACK setting will cause the 266xs to act like a peak limiter even though RMS detection circuitry is

dbx 266xs Section 3 Making Connections Expander/Gate RATIO Control This control sets the amount of attenuation applied to the input signal once it is below the threshold, from gentle downward expansion (appropriate for mixed program, vocals, etc.), to a hard gating effect (which can be useful for percussion). Fairly low RATIO (and higher Expander/Gate THRESHOLD) settings work best for downward expansion, whereas higher RATIO settings (clockwise towards MAX) work best for gating. If a setting
