Audio effector circuit

An audio effector circuit comprising:

• a first automatic level control circuit for subjecting an input audio signal to automatic level control to generate a first control-resultant audio signal, the first automatic level control circuit having a first predetermined attack time and a first predetermined release time longer than the first predetermined attack time;
• a second automatic level control circuit for subjecting the input audio signal to automatic level control to generate a second control-resultant audio signal, the second automatic level control circuit having a second predetermined attack time and a second predetermined release time, the second predetermined attack time being longer than the first predetermined attack time, the second predetermined release time being substantially equal to the first predetermined release time;
• a subtracter for providing a difference signal representing a difference between the first control-resultant signal generated by the first automatic level control circuit and the second control-resultant signal generated by the second automatic level control circuit;
• and
• an adder for adding the difference signal generated by the subtracter to the input audio signal.
