Link frequency bands: The frequency fields can be bundled together flexibly in order to
avoid artificial-sounding exaggeration in individual frequency fields.
Compressor
The compressor is essentially an automated dynamic volume control tool. Pitch dynamics
are limited, loud passages stay loud, and low passages become louder. Compression is
often used to make the material more powerful, particularly for bass re

Function: Defines the compressor's mode of operation depending upon the sound
material.
Stereo FX
The stereo FX processor provides adjustment of the alignment of the audio material in the
stereo balance. If the stereo recordings sound weak and undifferentiated, an extension of
