About Ashly

Ashly Audio was founded in 1974 by a group of recording engineers, sound professionals,
and electronics designers. The first products were custom consoles for friends and
associates, but business quickly grew. The philosophy established from the very beginning
holds true today: to offer only the highest quality audio tools at an affordable cost to the
professional user - ensuring reliability and long life. More than thirty-five years later,
Ashly remains committed to these principles.
What Compressors and Limiters Do
Limiting - All musical programs have constant changes in loudness. It is the job of a
limiter to detect when the volume has exceeded a predetermined maximum safe level, and
to then turn down the volume. When the incoming signal returns to its original level, the
limiter should respond by restoring the gain to normal. Thus, when the level is within a
specified "safe" range, the limiter has no effect. When an occasional peak occurs, the
limiter responds.
Compression - A significant difference in dynamic range is achieved simply by changing
the relationship between nominal signal level and threshold, as a result of either increasing
the GAIN and/or decreasing the THRESHOLD control. The most interesting effect to be
noted, however, is seen by comparing the original input signal with the output signal. The
quietest portions of the original signal will be effectively increased in volume while the
loudest portions of the original signal will be decreased. In effect, both ends of the
dynamic spectrum will be pushed toward the "middle". More than anything else, it is this
double-ended effect, which distinguishes compression from limiting.
