Dynamics

 sets the transition of the signal at the threshold. With a hard knee, the 

transition between uncompressed and compressed signal is immediate. 
With the softest knee, knee5, the transition starts before the signal reaches 
the threshold and gradually ends above the threshold.

 determines how soon the compressor returns to its normal gain 

once the trigger signal level drops below the threshold. If the release time is 
too short, the gain will recover too quickly causing level pumping - 
noticeable gain fluctuations. If it is set too long, the compressor may not 
have time to recover before the next high level signal appears, and it will be 
compressed incorrectly.
