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
