  lol that's funny, i literally NEVER used ratio higher than 5-6, so i didn't noticed it ends bellow 10

  basically by inserting two compressors, each with lets say 1:7, with all settings same, you get 1:14.. or no ?

  Just thinking about possible workaround...

  Also noticed (but will double check with better headphones) difference between 100% Dry and Bypassed compressor. Is that expected behavior?

  You have good ears never noticed this too... hard to say if this is expected behaviour, donyou think it should be considered as bug ?

  Thanks anyway, it's definitely one of the most useable compressors on iOS.

  Yes you are right about workaround, that should be ok. I often use ratio 12:1 or 20:1 as sound desing element basicly distortion (think UA 1176 for drums)
  Specially if parallel is built in I tend to push it hard and then dial back some dry signal.

  I would say it's bug, but can be part of some efficiency routine of the app. It's not that apparent, so not a big deal, just thought worth mentioning if it's indeed unintended.
