460 EFFECTS MENU
Attack: Here you can set the time frame between the crossing of the threshold and the
maximum extent of the effect in seconds.
Release: Here you can set the time frame between the falling off of the threshold and the
complete dissipation of the effect in seconds.
Compressor 1/2 threshold: Here you can set the input threshold in dB, above which the
respective component is activated.
Compressor 1/2 ratio: With this parameter you can control the compression ratio. The
"Linear" button resets the ratio to 1:1.
Gain: Use this fader to set the whole static reference line in dB.
All changes to these parameters directly influence the static transfer characteristic line.
Please note that the parameters influence one another.
Advanced Dynamics - Dynamic parameters
The "Reaction" function works much in the same way as the compressor does on the
source material.
Peak: This dynamic module reacts in a more lively fashion, but can tend to be a bit
"sharp".
RMS (Root Mean Square): Corresponds to the working method of an analog dynamic
module. It sounds relatively round and balanced, less lively. The time constant for signal
detection of the control signal only refers to the setting of the "Attack" fader. For signal
smoothing when manipulating the signal dynamics, both time constants are analyzed here
as well.
Fast: Use this option if you only wish to slightly influence the dynamics of objects. The
maximum level at the output is never higher than the limiter.
Preview: If this option is not checked, the dynamics section will not perform a preview. If
unchecked, "pumping" or distortion may be introduced. On the other hand, without a
preview this option will not automatically level steep attack phases of the waveform, which
may result in sharper audio material. Even when rebuilding the sound behavior of analog
dynamic modules we recommend working without a preview. The length of the preview
can be entered in the "Samples" field.
