Ratio Knob
Threshold Knob
Determines the amount of gain reduction used by the compression. For example,
a value of 2 (expressed as a 2:1 ratio) reduces the signal by half, with
an input signal of 20 dB being reduced to 10 dB. A value of 1 yields no compression.
Values beyond 10 yield a limiting effect. The range is 1 to Infinity.
Sets the threshold level for the compression. Any signals that exceed this level
are compressed. Signals below the level are unaffected. A Threshold of 0dB
yields no compression. The range is 0dB to -60dB.
As the Threshold control is increased and more compression occurs, output
level is typically reduced. However, the EX-1 provides an auto-makeup gain
function to automatically compensate for reduced levels. Adjust the Output
level control if more gain is desired.

Determines whether the VU Meter monitors the Input Level, Output Level, Gain
Reduction, or Meter Off. Click the menu above the meter display to select a
different metering function.
Enables or disables the Compressor.You can use this switch to compare the
compressor settings to that of the original signal or bypass the entire compressor
section to reduce UAD DSP load.
Adjusts the relative output of the plug-in.
EX-1M Overview
The EX-1M is a monophonic version of EX-1 that enables independent left and
right EQ settings in master effects chains and allows Logic Audio users to conserve
UAD DSP resources.
EX-1M requires half the processing power compared to that of EX-1 when
used on a mono audio track within Logic Audio. Therefore, EX-1M should be
used on monophonic audio tracks within Logic whenever possible to conserve
UAD resources.
