2.1.15. Release


The release parameter allows you to specify the amount of time it takes for a given amount of gain amplification to be applied to the source signal. Attack is configured by limiter attack, while release refers to the “release” of this gain reduction.

Release is a traditional ballistic parameter, similar to what you will find on most compressors. See the Linear release parameter for more direct release behavior. In addition to specifying the release in milliseconds, you can specify it in samples, BPM-relative units, or ratio of look-ahead duration.
