DE-ESSER MODULE
De-esser Page
Th:-40dB
De-esser Ratio:2.0:1
This page allows you to set the main de-esser parameters. Use the cursor
buttons to move from field to field and the Data Knob to set each param-
eter. For ease in setting the threshold, this page includes a display of the
incoming high-pass signal level and a graphic indication of the currently
selected threshold. The threshold must be set below the signal peaks for
any de-essing to occur.
Pressing the De-Ess button again while the De-esser Page is displayed will
display the De-esser Gain Reduction Meter Page (see below). Continually
pressing the De-Ess button will alternate between the two pages.
The ranges of the parameters are as follows:
Threshold: -60dB - 0dB
Ratio: 1.0:1 - 99:1
NOTE: If you are using the Double Track function (see below), the de-
esser works on both the main and the double track.

The Attack Time control adjusts the speed with which the de-esser’s
compressor element responds to peaks in the signal coming from the
highpass filter. The range of the control is from 0 milliseconds to 200
milliseconds.
