Focusrite D3
Focusrite D3 is a high-quality dynamics proces-
sor plug-in for Pro Tools. Developed in coopera-
tion with Focusrite, the D3 is based on the
highly acclaimed Red Range 3
™
dual mono/ste-
reo compressor & limiter designed by Rupert
Neve.
Focusrite D3 Configurations
There are two configurations of the real-time
TDM Focusrite D3 plug-in:
 Compressor+Limiter. This configuration al-
lows you to use both the compressor and the
limiter at the same time. The Compressor+Lim-
iter plug-in requires twice as much DSP as the
Compressor/Limiter.
 Compressor/Limiter. This configuration al-
lows you to use either the compressor or the lim-
iter—but not both at the same time. The
Compressor/Limiter plug-in uses half as much
DSP as the Compressor+Limiter. It is provided so
that you can conserve DSP, since you may not
need both compression and limiting at the same
time.
The Compressor/Limiter defaults to the com-
pressor being enabled and the limiter disabled.
