All Display
Displays controls and meters, in a condensed mode, for all four bands at the same time.
Link
Click the Link label to link the controls for all four bands. When doing so, adjustments made to any
band will aect all four frequency bands.
Adaptive Release
When Adaptive Release is On in the Dynamics module, it will automatically adjust the Release time of
the Compressor based on the Peak factor of a signal. If a transient signal is detected, the Release time
is scaled to be shorter for less pumping. If a sustained note is detected, the Release time is scaled to
be longer for lower distortion.
The Release time is scaled in relation to the Release value set by the user. For example:if you are
using the Compressor with the Release time set to 100 ms, the Release time will be automatically
adjusted to a value within a range of 20 ms to 200 ms, depending on the type of signal that is being
processed.
Gain
The gain slider adjusts the output gain of the entire Dynamics module. This is useful, for example, after
compressing or limiting to makeup the decrease in volume.
Auto Gain Compensation
When you click the auto button, automatic gain control calculates the RMS levels of both the input and
output signals of the Compressor for each crossover band, and then applies the appropriate gain to
the output signal to compensate for the dierence.
This automatically brings audio levels to a level comparable to the unprocessed audio, and acts as a
smart “make-up gain” control that adapts to the mix over time.
This is also a useful tool for A/B’ing various settings in the multiband Dynamics module without having
gain changes aect your perception.
Parallel
Adjust this slider to control the dry/wet mix of direct, unprocessed signal to the processed signal for
the module.
