309 Live Audio Effect Reference
often be damped when the tuning or quality are set to low values. This parameter is unavailable
with the Pipe or Tube resonators.
Gain boosts or attenuates the level of the processed signal, while the Dry/Wet control adjusts
the balance between the dry input signal and the signal sent to Corpus’s processing. Turning
Dry/Wet down will not cut resonances that are currently sounding, but rather stop new input
signals from being processed.
Corpus contains a built-in limiter that automatically activates when the audio level is too high.
This is indicated by the LED in the upper-right corner of Corpus’s display.
22.9 Dynamic Tube
The Dynamic Tube Effect.
(Note: the Dynamic Tube effect is not available in the Intro and Lite Editions.)
The Dynamic Tube effect infuses sounds with the peculiarities of tube saturation. An integrated
envelope follower generates dynamic tonal variations related to the level of the input signal.
Three tube models, A, B and C, provide a range of distortion characteristics known from real
amplifier tubes. Tube A does not produce distortions if Bias is set low, but will kick in whenever
the input signal exceeds a certain threshold, creating bright harmonics. Tube C is a very poor
tube amp that produces distortions all the time. The qualities of Tube B lie somewhere between
these two extremes.
