Phaser parameters
• Mode: The selection includes a number of filter stages. At 4
stages/8 stages, a more plastic effect is achieved, and more
complex patterns are reached at 16 stages. Please note that the
more stages are involved, the more computing time will be needed.
• Rate: Speed of filter modulation. The essential effect is the same for
both chorus and flanger.
• Depth: Similar to chorus/flanger, whereby it's the filter notches that
are addressed, and not the pitch modulation.
• Feedback: The feedback portion produces a more drastic effect in
this case. Similarly to the chorus/flanger, co-phasal or opposite-
phase feedback is possible.
• Mix: Regulates the mix ratio of the original signal and the delayed
portion.
Compressor
This plug-in is a simple but efficient tool for reducing the signal
dynamics. Percussion tracks may be modeled compacter and with
more pumping, vocals may be integrated into the mix better, or entire
sum or group signals may be made denser.
Compared to other plug-ins of this kind, this compressor works with
a comparably soft characteristic curve, an adaptive process to
compress in a very musical way. Furthermore, a separate input
(external side-chain signal) may be defined as the controlling source.
