D2 Parameters
Input Level
Input Level allows you to attenuate signal input
level to the D2. The range of this control is from
–18 dB to +12 dB.
When you use D2 in stereo, each channel has its
own separate Input Level knob. To adjust input
levels for both channels simultaneously, select the
Link button, then drag either knob.
Output Level
Output Level allows you to adjust the overall out-
put gain. The range of this control is from –18 dB
to +12 dB.
When you use the D2 plug-in in stereo, each chan-
nel has its own separate output level knob. To ad-
just output levels for both channels simultane-
ously, select the Link button.
Meters
The D2’s high-resolution plasma-style meters in-
dicate signal levels and detect clipping at the input,
algorithm, or output stage. When D2 is used in ste-
reo, two meters appear, one for each channel.
A Clip Indicator is located above each meter. It in-
dicates clipping by increasing its brightness as suc-
cessive samples are clipped. Click the Clip Indica-
tor to clear it. Alt-clicking (Windows) or Option-
clicking (Mac) clears both channels when D2 is
used in stereo.
