-	'''majortom '''                - Compressor, ala dbx160 VU (old model) or kinda like an LA2A when in Feedback mode.	+
-		+
-	'''mastertom'''                - Same as majortom, different algorithm, slightly different sound.	+
-		+
-	'''ozzifier'''                  - Multi-voice chorus/delay...you'll recognize it.	+
-		+
-	'''randomizer'''                - Randomizes midi input...useful for taking signal from drumtrigger and using multiple reasamplomatic instances to trigger multiple snare samples, avoiding machine-gun triggered snare sound.	+
-		+
-	'''rbj4eq'''                    - 4-band EQ	+
-		+
-	'''rbj7eq'''                    - 7-band EQ	+

-	'''realoud'''                  - Psychoacoustic loudness enhancer, with different algorithm than louderizer.	+
-		+
-	'''realoud_lpf'''              - Same relation to realoud as louderizer_lpf is to louderizer	+
-		+
-	'''thunderkick'''              - LF enhancer...adds in subharmonics to enhance lowest octaves.  Note: does NOT work well with pitched instruments.  Mostly useful for kick drum.	+
-		+
-	'''volscale'''                  - Think of it as a MIDI compressor...scales output volume range and adds/removes gain.	+
-		+
-		+
-	=== Major Tom ===	+
-		+
-	===FairlyChildish===	+
-	The adjustable settings on this compressor are	+
-	Threshold	+
-	Bias	+
-	AGC	+
-	Time constant	+
-	Level Detector RMS window.	+
-		+
-	There are two non-adjustable settings "current comp ratio" and "gain reduction", which move automatically with the program signal.	+
-		+
-	Here is a rundown of how to use fairlychildish	+
-		+
-	'''With the bias set low and the threshold set to *just* catch peaks'''	+
-	you get fairly hard ratios (30:1 etc) - and as you lower the threshold, the ratio goes up a LOT - to like 300:1 ... and the sound of the compression gets punchier - which is interesting.	+
-		+
-	'''with the bias set high and the threshold just catching the peaks''', you get extremely gentle compression, with the ratio fluctuating from around 1.1 to 3:1. As you lower the threshold, the ratio goes up ... to around the 15:1 mark give or take.	+
-		+
-	'''Time constant'''	+
-		+
-	Time constant affects the attack/release times of the compressor. The Fairchild had some REALLY short attack times (measured in microseconds), and LOOOONG release times (measured in fractions of a MINUTE). The higher the time constant, the longer the attack and release, generally.	+
-	On "fairlychildish", this setting at higher levels gives some really nice, smooth results - even on the harder compression settings. It is reminiscent of the waves SSL G-comp in this way.	+
-		+
-	'''AGC'''	+
-	There are two options for this - Lat/Vert and Left/Right. the Lat/Vert setting on the Fairchild was used when cutting actual masters for vinyl. What it does is switch the level detection and compression from normal stereo to L+R and L-R, reconstituting the normal signals after compression. This allows you to separately compress the center signal (typically bass) from the side signals...a form of Mid/Side compression. The reason it was used on vinyl was to keep the grooves from being cut too wide (lateral) or too deep (vertical).	+	* [http://jesusonic.com/help.html Coding Documentation] (this is documentation for standalone Jesusonic, not all features are supported in Reaper)

-	'''The level detector rms window slider'''	+	[[Main_Page|Main Page]]
-	When this is set very low, it yields considerably less compression than when it is set high. Setting it high (say, over 1 second) would be interesting for musical compression while setting it low might work for soft limiting.	+	[[Category:Jesusonic]] [[Category:Documentation]]
