V1.0.3 — Initial Audio Ia-la1 Compressor

: This control adds warmth and depth through gentle dynamic distortion. At 0%, the algorithm remains transparent; increasing it adds "analog" character.

: Toggles between lower (compress) and higher (limit) compression ratios for different dynamic needs. Workflow Guide IA-LA1 Compressor Plugin - Initial Audio Initial Audio IA-LA1 Compressor v1.0.3

: Since compression reduces the dynamic range and overall volume, use this knob to restore the signal's loudness. : This control adds warmth and depth through

The plugin's interface is centered around five primary parameters that simplify the mixing process for vocals, bass, and mix buses: Workflow Guide IA-LA1 Compressor Plugin - Initial Audio
