This chapter describes the included VST audio effects and their parameters. How to apply and manage audio effects is described in the Operation Manual.
Operation Manual
Brickwall Limiter ensures that the output level never exceeds a set limit.
Compressor reduces the dynamic range of the audio, making softer sounds louder or louder sounds softer, or both.
DeEsser is a special type of compressor that reduces excessive sibilance, primarily for vocal recordings.
EnvelopeShaper can be used to attenuate or boost the gain of the attack and release phase of audio material.
Gating, or noise gating, silences audio signals below a set threshold. As soon as the signal level exceeds the threshold, the gate opens to let the signal through.
Limiter is designed to ensure that the output level never exceeds a set output level, to avoid clipping in following devices.
Maximizer raises the loudness of audio material without the risk of clipping. The plug-in provides two modes, Classic and Modern, that offer different algorithms and parameters.
This plug-in gates audio signals. The gate is triggered by MIDI notes.
Squasher is a multi-band compressor that combines upward and downward compression, allowing you to squash the audio signal. You can set up different parameters for up to three frequency bands and use internal or external side-chaining sources to control the amount of compression for each band.
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.
VintageCompressor is modeled after vintage type compressors.
VSTDynamics is an advanced dynamics processor. It combines three separate effects: Gate, Compressor, and Limiter, covering a variety of dynamic processing functions.
This chapter describes the included MIDI realtime effects and their parameters. How to apply and manage MIDI effects is described in the Operation Manual.
The included VST instruments are described in separate documents.
