Comp/Limiter Control Dialog
Comp/Limiters affect short-term signal dynamics (peaks).
Attack determines how quickly the Comp/Limiter reacts to input
level changes. Compression Ratio determines the intensity of
gain reduction (input level increase vs. output level increase).
Release Time determines how quickly gain reduction is
released, once input signal falls below Threshold. Threshold
determines what input level will trigger gain reduction. A meter
& numeric display indicate the amount of gain reduction.
Bypass disables the Comp/Limiter without changing settings.
Identifier provides a custom label, when dialog box is
minimized (see below).
Right-clicking over certain settings will provide a menu of
additional options. Control Dialog Boxes for Comp/Limiters
can be minimized to create user control surfaces (see
Customizing Component Objects).
Ducker Control Dialog
Duckers provide level attenuation, triggered by signal or logic
inputs. Input Level provides muting and level adjustment for the
normal audio input, which appears as the upper input on the left side
of the Ducker. Sense Level provides muting and level adjustment
for the signal trigger input, which appears as the lower input on the
left side of the Ducker. Threshold determines what sense input
signal level will trigger ducking. Ducking Level determines how
much attenuation is applied to the normal audio signal during
ducking. Attack determines how quickly the ducker reacts to
trigger input (signal or logic). Release determines how quickly
attenuation is released, once trigger input is removed (signal or
logic). Logic In turns on/off and reverses operation (off triggers
ducking) of the logic trigger input, which appears at the top of the
Ducker. Logic Out provides the same functions as Logic In, but
instead as a trigger output (follows ducking activity), which appears
at the bottom of the Ducker. Mix Sense allows the Sense input
signal to be mixed with normal audio input signal, at the output of
the Ducker. Bypass disables the Ducker without changing settings.
Right-clicking over certain settings will provide a menu of
additional options.
