I would like the circuit to produce a voltage proportional to the compression in addition to the original signal in compressed mode. I also would appreciate any comments as to wether or not any of the information contained in the original signal will be lost in the compression process. thanks, Ames Grisanti (udgrisan@ndsuvax)
