Effects

Dynamics (Dynamic)

Advanced

d: Attack
d: Release

These parameters set the attack time and release time. A higher
attack time will cause the compression to be applied more slowly.

f: Trigger Monitor

Setting this parameter On will cause the trigger signal to be out-
put, instead of the effect sound. Use this parameter to check the
trigger signal with EQ applied.

Usually, set this to Off.

f: Side PEQ Insert
g: Side PEQ Cutoff [Hz]
g: Q
g: Gain [dB]

These parameters are used to set the EQ applied to the trigger
signal.

The Limiter determines whether the compression is applied or
not, based on the post-EQ trigger signal. Setting the equalizer
allows you to set the Limiter to respond to any frequency band.

4: Multiband Limiter

This effect applies the Limiter to the low range, mid range, and
high range of the input signal. You can control dynamics for each
range to adjust the sound pressure of the low range, mid range,
and high range in a different way from the EQ.

e: Low Offset [dB]
f: Mid Offset [dB]
g: High Offset [dB]

These parameters set the gain of the trigger signal.

For example, if you do not want to apply compression to the high
range, reduce the “High Offset” value down below the “Thresh-
old” level. In this way, the high range limiter will not respond,
and compression will not be applied.

5: St.MasteringLimtr

(Stereo Mastering Limiter)

This is a stereo limiter that is optimized for mastering songs.

6: Stereo Gate

This effect mutes the input signal when it falls below a specified
level. You can also invert the on/off status of the gate, or use
note-on/off messages to turn the gate on/off directly.
