We present a very simple, effective, and computationally efficient algorithm to reduce the typical hiss amplification (or `breathing`) artifact of dynamics compressors working under high compression ratios. The algorithm works in the time domain, is very easy to implement, has a very low computational cost and requires little program memory, therefore being of special interest for consumer-audio applications.
