Hi Cuong! If I remember correctly, Chris's Dynamic Compressor doesn't actually have attack and release time settings. I don't know how it operates. In Audacity Compressor I have set attack time to 2% and release to 14%. My favourite compressor is SC4 though, because it allows you to enter numeric values rather than adjusting percentage sliders. 16 ms attack and 60 to 80 ms release works fine for me. But bear in mind that these values may differ depending on the individual voice, background noise, etc. Cheers!

Hi Robbie Tried the atack time with 0.5ms, and the problem still exist. If you have time, I'll send you a part that can demonstrate my problem. Actually, I use Chris's Dynamic compressor, but I still want to learn more about audacity compressor. Thank you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robbie" <tickleberryfun@xxxxxxxxx> To: <audacity4blind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, January 06, 2014 2:13 AM Subject: [audacity4blind] Re: mic compression vst with audacity? > Hi Cuong! > It sounds like your attack time is so long that you can hear it > kicking in at the start of the track.
