if i just want to move the threshold lower (in terms of standard compressor controls), i would in fact have to move the input up, and the output down (to compensate, due to the internal threshold). so, it would involve a lot of fiddlin' to satisfy my compulsive-obsessive need to be able to bypass at any given sample, and see the low levels untouched.
but, as you said, it certainly is possible!
You are correct, but it is a fairly quick process. I do it all the time when mixing, and the controls on the UAD are pretty linear. I would do a quick bypass/compare after setting it to make sure levels match.
