[LAU] Opposite of attenuation

Struggling for the proper language: What's the opposite of the term "attenuation" in signal level context? Is it "amplification"?

Context is a tool which will output info on Dolby's Cinema Sound processors (CP650/750). Those have a "main fader knob" which will attenuate or, well, amplify the input signal: range 0.0 (-90 dB) to 10.0 (+10 dB), 2 linear parts with a joining knee at 4.0 (-10 dB).

Thanks, Wolfgang
