COMPANDER HARD (COMPANDER-H), COMPANDER SOFT (COMPANDER-S)
The hard and soft companders combine the effects of the compressor, expander and limiter.
The companders function differently at the following levels:
1 0 dB and higher ..................................Functions as a limiter.
2 Exceeding the threshold ....................Functions as a compressor.
3 Below the threshold and width ..........Functions as an expander.
The hard compander has an expansion ratio of 5:1, while the soft compander has an
expansion ratio of 1.5:1. The expander is essentially turned off when the width is set to
maximum. The compressor has a fixed knee setting of 2.
* The gain is automatically adjusted according to the ratio and threshold values, and can be increased by up to 18 dB.
* The OUT GAIN parameter enables you to compensate for the overall level change caused by the compression and
expansion processes.
DE-ESSER
This detects and compresses only the sibilants and other high-frequency consonants of the
vocal.
Effect Type List
Parameter Range Description
THRESHOLD (dB) -54 to 0 (55 points)
This determines the level at which compression is
applied.
RATIO
1.0:1, 1.1:1, 1.3:1, 1.5:1, 1.7:1, 2.0:1,
2.5:1, 3.0:1, 3.5:1, 4.0:1, 5.0:1, 6.0:1,
8.0:1, 10:1, 20:1 (15 points)
This determines the amount of compression.
ATTACK (ms) 0-120 (121 points)
This determines how soon the signal is compressed or
expanded once the compander has been triggered.
RELEASE (ms)
44.1kHz: 6 ms - 46.0 sec
48kHz: 5 ms - 42.3 sec (160 points)
This determines how soon the compressor or
expander returns to the normal gain once the trigger
signal level drops below or exceeds the threshold
respectively. The value is expressed as the duration
required for the level to change by 6 dB.
OUT GAIN (dB) -18.0 to 0.0 (181 points) This sets the compressor's output signal level.
WIDTH (dB) 1-90 (90 points)
This determines how far below the threshold
expansion will be applied. The expander is activated
when the level drops below the threshold and width.
Parameter Range Description
THRESHOLD -54 to 0 (55 points) Threshold level at which the de-esser effect is applied.
FREQUENCY 1kHz-12.5kHz (45 points)
Cutoff frequency of the filter used to detect the high
frequencies.
TYPE HPF, BPF Type of filter used to detect the frequency band.
Q 10.0-0.10 (41 points) Q (steepness) of the filter when TYPE is BPF.
