Effects
Dynamics (Dynamic)
Dynamics (Dynamic)
0: No Effect
Select this option when you do not use any effects.
1: Stereo Compressor
This effect compresses the input signal to regulate the level and
give a “punchy” effect. It is useful for guitar, piano, and drum
sounds. This is a stereo compressor. You can link left and right
channels, or use each channel separately.
a: Envelope Select
This parameter selects whether the left and right channels are
linked to control both signals simultaneously, or whether each
channel is controlled independently.
b: Sensitivity
g: Output Level
The “Sensitivity” parameter sets the sensitivity of the compres-
sor. If this parameter is set to a higher value, lower level sounds
will be boosted. With a higher Sensitivity, the overall volume
level is higher. To adjust the final volume level, use the “Output
Level” parameter.
c: Attack
This parameter controls the attack level.
2: Stereo Limiter
The Limiter regulates the input signal level. It is similar to the
Compressor, except that the Limiter compresses only signals that
exceed the specified level to lower unnecessary peak signals. The
Limiter applies a peaking-type EQ to the trigger signal (which
controls the degree of the Limiter effect), allowing you to set any
band width to be covered. This effect is a stereo limiter. You can
link left and right channels, or use each channel individually.
