volume compressor [′väl·yəm kəm‚pres·ər]

(engineering acoustics)

An audio-frequency circuit that limits the volume range of a radio program at the transmitter, to permit using a higher average percent modulation without risk of overmodulation; also used when making disk recordings, to permit a closer groove spacing without overcutting. Also known as automatic volume compressor.
