Dialog Processor
The Dialog Processor chains together six different common audio processing operations inside
of a single plug-in, each tuned to the specific needs of making adjustments to improve human
speech. The specialized De-Rumble, De-Pop, De-Ess, Comp(ressor), Expander, and Excite
controls each have a streamlined set of controls tailored to speeding up the types of common
adjustments every dialog track uses.
The Dialog Processor plug-in
Distortion
An effects plug-in. Creates audio distortion that’s useful for sound design and effects, ranging
from simple harmonic distortion simulating an audio signal going through primitive or faulty
electronics (such as bad speakers, old telephones, or obsolete recording technologies), all the
way to mimicking an overdriven signal experiencing different intensities of hard clipping (think
someone yelling through a cheap bullhorn, megaphone, or PA system). This plug-in includes
soft tube emulation in the output stage.
An animated graph shows the results of adjusting the Distortion parameters of this plug-in,
giving you a visualization of the kind of harmonic distortion, waveshaping, and clipping that will
be modifying the signal as you make adjustments. Input and Output meters let you see how the
levels are being affected.
