Hello,
I'm building my own compressor and I've been analysing patches I've found but I can't figure out a part of this one.
If you open the patch [st-compressor], then open the [pd workings] subpatch and then the [pd rh_scalelog] subpatch, I can't figure out why 'Roman H' is using natural log for ratio, attack and release. I must be missing something because on another patch [tb_compressor~], all it uses for the ratio is
[ratio( | [swap 1] | / [/ ] | [s $0-ratio]
This is obviously calculating the inverse of the ratio, which has a 0-100 range.
I would really like to know what is the idea behind Roman's rh_scalelog.
Thanks
