Logic Platinum Digital Compressor -

using either the built-in Mix knob or via auxiliary routing.

| Parameter | Function | |-----------|----------| | | Sets the level (in dB) above which compression begins. Signals above this point are reduced in gain. | | Ratio | Determines how much gain reduction is applied once the signal exceeds the threshold. A 4:1 ratio means that for every 4 dB above threshold, only 1 dB passes through. | | Attack | The time it takes for the compressor to engage after the signal crosses the threshold. Faster attacks catch transients; slower attacks let them through untouched. | | Release | The time it takes for the compressor to stop reducing gain after the signal falls below the threshold. | | Make‑Up / Auto Gain | Restores level lost to compression. The Auto Gain buttons (0 dB or –12 dB) provide quick compensation, or you can dial in make‑up gain manually. | | Knee | Controls how abruptly compression begins near the threshold. Hard knee (low values) produces a sharp transition; soft knee (high values) yields a gentler, more musical curve. | | Input / Output Gain | Adjusts the level entering the compressor and the final output level, respectively. | | Side Chain | Opens access to external side‑chain triggering, high‑pass filtering, and — crucially for the Platinum Digital — the Peak / RMS detection switch. | logic platinum digital compressor

Platinum’s transparency makes it an excellent candidate for parallel compression (also called New York compression). Create an aux send from your drum bus, insert Platinum Digital on the aux, and — high ratio (8:1 or 10:1), fast attack, fast release, significant gain reduction (10 dB or more). Then blend that compressed aux in with the dry signal. Because the Platinum Digital adds no distortion or tonal shift, the parallel channel will simply add density and sustain without altering the original sound’s character. | | Ratio | Determines how much gain
