Activate Filter
Activates/Deactivates the internal side-chain and allows you to set up a filter to
modify the signal detection.
Filter Frequency (50 to 20000 Hz)
If the internal side-chain is activated, this parameter sets the filter frequency for the
signal detection.
Q-Factor (0.01 to 10000)
If the internal side-chain is activated, this parameter sets the resonance of the filter
for the signal detection.
Listen Filter
Allows you to monitor the filtered signal.
Compressor
This channel strip module reduces the dynamic range of the audio, making softer sounds
louder or louder sounds softer, or both. Open the pop-up menu to select between Standard
Compressor, Tube Compressor(Cubase Elements only), and Vintage Compressor(Cubase
Elements only).
Standard Compressor
Allows you to create smooth compression effects. Drag the compressor up or down to change its
position in the signal flow.
Threshold (-60 to 0 dB)
Determines the level where the compressor kicks in. Only signal levels above the set
threshold are processed.
Ratio (1:1 to 8:1)
Sets the amount of gain reduction that is applied to signals above the set threshold.
A ratio of 3:1 means that for every 3 dB the input level increases, the output level
increases by 1 dB.
Gain Reduction LED
Indicates the amount of compression of the signal.
Attack (0.1 to 100 ms)
Determines how fast the compressor responds to signals above the set threshold.
If the attack time is long, more of the early part of the signal passes through
unprocessed.
Release (10 to 1000 ms or Auto mode)
Sets the time after which the gain returns to the original level when the signal drops
below the threshold. If Auto is activated, the compressor automatically finds the best
release setting for the audio material.
Make-up (0 to 24 dB or Auto mode)
Compensates for output gain loss that is caused by compression. If Auto is activated,
the knob becomes dark and the output is automatically adjusted for gain loss.
Tube Compressor(Cubase Elements only)
This versatile compressor with integrated tube-simulation allows you to achieve smooth
and warm compression effects. The VU meter shows the amount of gain reduction. Tube
Compressor features an internal side-chain section that lets you filter the trigger signal.
