Equalizer
The 10-track equalizer divides the frequency spectrum into 10 areas (tracks) and supplies them with
separate volume controls to allow you to achieve many impressive effects, from the simple rising of the
bass to total sound transformation. If you raise the low frequencies too much throughout the whole level,
it might cause distortions.
Fader:
The volume of each of the 10 frequency bands can be set separately with the 10 volume controls.
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 recordings and vocals, but also as master effects in the
mixer for adding to the overall sound.
Ratio:
Regulates the compression ratio.
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 the stereo base width
can often provide better transparency.
Bandwidth control:
Adjust the bandwidth between mono (on the extreme left), unchanged base width (center) and maximum
bandwidth ("wide" on the extreme right).
Reducing the bandwidth can raise the overall level. In extreme cases, when the left and the right channels
include identical material and the bandwidth control is pushed to the extreme left on "mono", the result
can be a level increase of 3 decibels.
Raising the bandwidth (values of 100) diminishes the mono compatibility.
Title
Titles can be used for many applications, e.g. as a running text (ticker), subtitles, speech and thought
bubbles, to display date and time, and much more.
