The compressor is installed. Not too sure about the Compress Ratio units.
Does 0.5 mean 2:1 compression?
Not a clue. I presented the problem to the forum along with samples of the work and someone posted those settings. They worked.
Chris is intended to work by itself. It's a stand-alone compressor.
You will also notice Chris will push the overall volume up. I don't know anybody who complains about that.
This is a before and two afters: 0.5 and 0.77.
Note the theme song at the left more than doubled but the higher vocal peaks only went up a bit.
