SURROUND SOUND 239
Drawing Surround automation curves
To use this automation mode, you must first select the range in the VIP where you would
like to add the change. Draw mode is now activated in the Surround panorama module.
You may now draw any movement for the sound source in the Surround panorama. This
sequence is then applied in the previously selected time span when playing back the VIP
the next time. This curve may be edited after in the VIP by using the mouse in "Curve edit"
mode.
Effects in Surround projects
Difference between stereo and Surround effects
The following Surround effects are available for Surround buses:
 Dynamics
 Multiband dynamics
 Advanced dynamics
 Room simulator
 FFT filter
 De-hisser
 Vocoder
Effects may only process up to 6 channels in parallel instead of only two (stereo) when
working with Surround.
You may define the number of channels by grouping.
Accessing Surround effects
Surround effects may be used in Surround buses (including the Surround master) and in
Surround AUX buses.
Grouping mechanism for Surround FX, Surround control
group
Grouping and ungrouping: Hold the "Ctrl" key while clicking the channels in the output's
mixer for the channels routed to "Sur mast" that you want grouped together or removed
from a group.
Add effects to Surround bus (Surround FX): If Surround channels have been grouped,
all of the channels in the group will be processed using a single instance of the effect, i.e.
the parameters affect all channels in the group equally.
Surround control group The Surround channel buttons are located in the Surround
control group that appears with the Surround-capable effects below the effects dialog.
Grouping effects:
 The parameters entered in the effects window affect all channels of the active group (as
they would affect two stereo channels in "Stereo" mode).
