2.1.11. Ballistics type

The ballistics type combo-box allows you to change Loudness Compressor’s ballistics behavior.

  • Natural (dithered) applies light dithering to natural ballistics deltas.
  • Natural (direct) applies normal smooth attack and release ballistics.
  • Inertial (dithered) applies light dithering to inertial ballistics deltas.
  • Inertial (direct) applies attack and release ballistics with inertia.

Inertial ballistics are more responsive to sudden changes in loudness, but may sound less natural.
