Dialog items
The Smart Bypass dialog contains the following items:
Item Description
Play – Original audio This monitors the unprocessed signal at the Master Section input.
Play – Processed
audio + level correction
This monitors the signal at the Master Section output plus the ap-
plied level correction. To listen to the corrected level requires that
you have clicked the “Update gains” button first.
Play –
Processed audio
This monitors the signal at the Master Section output without level
correction.
Level correction –
Match peaks
If this is selected, the output signal will be level-corrected so that
the peak levels of the processed signal and the original signal
match.
Level correction –
Match loudness
If this is selected the output signal will be level-corrected so that
the loudness of the processed signal and the original signal match.
This is the overall most useful mode, as it works similarly to how
the ear perceives loudness.
Level correction – Time This determines the length of the level analysis.
Level correction –
Update gains
This will update the current analysis. You have to play back the au-
dio for at least as long as the set “Time” before clicking this but-
ton. If you change the level correction parameters, you have to
click “Update gains” again to refresh the analysis.
Level correction –
Custom correction
This allows you to set a custom level compensation (no analysis).
