he value ranges associated with the dynamics controls are as follows:
Side Chain Processing Order
The EQ and filter sections can be assigned to the Dynamics sidechains, allowing for advanced processes like de-essing. This
is done using the DYN S/C switches in the respective sections.
The Process Order display at the base of the plug-in window indicates the sidechain
assignments, as shown to the right. Both EQ and filter sections can be assigned to
the sidechain together, in which case the EQ precedes the filter.
To listen to the signal feeding the side chain, press the S/C LISTEN button in the Output section to route the side chain signal
to the channel output.
Note. Remember to cancel the S/C LISTEN button once you have finished auditioning the side chain!
CHANNEL PROCESSING ORDER
Signal processing order is shown in the graphic at the bottom of the plug-in window.
The default plug-in order is Filters ® EQ ® Dynamics.
To place the after the EQ section, deactivate the INPUT switch in the Filters section
The INPUT indicator should go off.
To place the Dynamics before the EQ, press the PRE EQ switch in the Dynamics
section.
When the INPUT and PRE EQ switch are active simultaneously, the processing order
becomes Filters ® Dynamics ® EQ.
OUTPUT SECTION
The Output section allows you to ensure that the signal retains a good level after all the signal processing.
The signal level is shown to the right of the knob. As a rough guide, the ‘-6’ yellow indicator should
occasionally comes on but the red ‘0’ indicator should remain off.
S/C LISTEN routes the sidechain directly to the output, so you can monitor the sidechain signal.
