Waves SSL G Buss Comp - Weird fade in
Hello,
So I read the manual, no need to refer me to it, but the SSL G comp's Fade options are weird for me. The fade out works just fine; Ill set the amount of time, and when I click fade out, it fades out every time. The fade in however only Fades In after a fade out, and never from the start of the song. So, I set the amount of time, I automate the fade in button to be pressed at the beginning of a song, then when I press play, it would not fade in. Here is the only time it works, After a fade out, If I click fade in again, it'll fade in. Am I missing something here? because if thats how its supposed to work then its pretty useless. And yes I know I could just automate the master fader for the fades. Does anyone have experience with that option and can tell me what its meant for and how does it work? I mean according to the manual, and common sense, when I click fade in, it should start from -inf to unity.... Thanks

It’s behaving exactly like hardware does. You must lower the level of the VCA (fade out ) before you can fade back in.

So from the plug in it self? Like press/automate fade out then fade in. Or fade out the bus's vca before the fade in? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Hello, I read that as well. I know how to fade in and out using the device, and I get that it’s done so that the compressor settings doesn’t change with the fades. But I’m confused as to why I have to fade out, then fade in, before a song starts so that I could fade in. Was it a hardware limitation and waves are simply keeping it true to the original or what exactly? Sorry for being anal about this but I really need to know Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Waves SSL G Buss Comp - Weird fade in
Think about it for a moment. A fade is an automatic volume control that goes from 0% to 100% no matter if it's analog or digital. Do you think you it is possible to make fade in (analog or digital) if the volume is already on 100%?
The solution for you is to leave a few seconds before the song and use fade out in that part so the volume goes to 0% before the audio begins, this way it will be possible to put it back to 100% with a fade in. It could have been possible to make a setting where the volume was set to 0 as the starting point but that not how the plug was designed, probably to stay faithful to the hardware
