Many linear effects feature a Mix fader. This parameter controls the percentage of processed sound that is mixed to the original signal.
Non-linear effects are dependent on dynamic parameters, as opposed to linear effects. The compressor is a prime example of non-linear signal processing, as the amount of gain reduction depends on the current volume level.
