The declipping-algorithm is especially useful in material, where the
excessive recording level has caused distorted piano or chorus
voices. Affected drumbeats however will normally not improve after
the use of this function.
CLIP LEVEL: Here you can tell the algorithm from which level on the
algorithm has to consider the sample as blasted and therefore
corrects it. This is an important point, as the different sound cards
have different clipping characteristics.
Choosing -6dB, for example, will cause that all samples that exceed
half of the maximum value will be considered blasted and therefore
will be calculated again.
With GET CLIP LEVEL the CLIP LEVEL can be gaged automatically.
The interpolated signal peaks adjust the whole level, which must be
balanced out with the GAIN fader so as to avoid new overmodulation.
When doing so, you should observe the peak meter to the right of the
dialog.
The option "LIMITER" switches on a limiter which reliably avoids
overmodulation.
With the INVERSE button you can control whether or not undistorted
parts of the wanted signal are interpreted as clippings and are filtered
out unnecessarily.
Dynamics
The compressor is basically an automatic, dynamic volume controller.
The volume dynamics of a track will be limited by the settings; loud
passages will stay loud, and the volume of silent passages will be
raised. Compression is normally useful if you want to make your
material sound more powerful and penetrating. The grade of
compression can be adjusted using the ratio controller. The threshold
is controlled by the threshold button and attack and release can also
be controlled by the corresponding buttons.
