Flexible sidechain-control configuration isprovided. Both <b>downward</b> and <b>upward</b> modes are available. Also additional dry/wet control allows to mix processed and unprocessed signal together. </p> <p><b>Controls:</b></p> <ul> <li> <b>Bypass</b> - bypass switch, when turned on (led indicator is shining), the plugin bypasses signal. </li> <li><b>Pause</b> - pauses any updates of the expander graph.</li> <li><b>Clear</b> - clears all graphs.</li> <li><b>MS Listen</b> - passes mid-side signal to the output of expander instead of stereo signal.</li> <li><b>Gain M, S</b> - enables drawing of gain amplification line and corresponding amplification meter.</li> <li><b>SC M, S</b> - enables drawing of sidechain input graph and corresponding level meter.</li> <li><b>Env M, S</b> - enables drawing of expander's envelope graph and corresponding level meter.</li> <li><b>In M, S</b> - enables drawing of expander's input signal graph and corresponding level meter.</li> <li><b>Out M, S</b> - enables drawing of expander's output signal graph and corresponding level meter.</li> </ul> <p><b>'Sidechain' section:</b></p> <ul> <li><b>Preamp</b> - pre-amplification of the sidechain signal.</li> <li><b>Reactivity</b> - reactivity of the sidechain signal.</li> <li><b>Lookahead</b> - look-ahead time of the sidechain relative to the input signal.</li> <li><b>Setup</b> - Sidechain configuration, available values:</li> <ul> <li><b>Peak</b> - peak mode.</li> <li><b>RMS</b> - root mean square of the input signal.</li> <li><b>Low-pass</b> - input signal processed by low-pass filter.</li> <li><b>Uniform</b> - input signal processed by uniform filter.</li> <li><b>Middle</b> - middle part of signal is used for sidechain processing.</li> <li><b>Side</b> - side part of signal is used for sidechain processing.</li> <li><b>Left</b> - only left channel is used for sidechain processing.</li> <li><b>Right</b> - only right channel is used for sidechain processing.</li> </ul> <li><b>Listen</b> - allows to listen the <b>processed</b> sidechain signal.</li> </ul> <p><b>'Expander' section:</b></p> <ul> <li><b>Mode</b> - expander mode: <b>Up</b> (upward) or <b>Down</b> (downward).</li> <li><b>Ratio</b> - expander ratio.</li> <li><b>Knee</b> - size of the knee.</li> <li><b>Makeup</b> - additional amplification gain after processing stage.</li> <li><b>Attack Level</b> - threshold of the expander, placed in the middle of the knee.</li> <li><b>Attack Time</b> - attack time of the expander.</li> <li><b>Release Level</b> - relative to the <b>Attack Level</b> threshold that sets up the threshold of <b>Release Time</b>.</li> <li><b>Release Time</b> - release time of the expander.</li> <li><b>Mix Dry</b> - the amount of dry (unprocessed) signal.</li> <li><b>Mix Wet</b> - the amount of wet (processed) signal.</li> </ul> <p><b>'Signal' section:</b></p> <ul> <li><b>Input</b> - overall input gain.</li> <li><b>Output</b> - overall output gain.</li> </ul> </div> <!-- Navigation bottom --> <div id="menu"> <ul> <li class="sel">Expander MidSide - Expander MidSide</li> <li><a href="../../index.html">Home</a></li> </ul> </div> <!-- Footer --> <div id="footer"> <p>(C) Linux Studio Plugins, 2015-2016</p> <p>All rights reserved</p> </div> </div> </body> </html>
