Priority
In some cases, multiple levels of ducking can be required to enable an input source to
take precedence over all but one other input.
In this example, Inputs 2 through 6 are set to duck when Input #1 has a signal above the
ducking threshold. Input #2 is set to duck inputs 5 and 6. Since Input #1 has previously
been set to duck Input #2, Input #1 is disabled to prevent contradictory priorities.
Figure 32.
Ducker Configuration, Input Priority
Notice the priority tree on the right side of figure 32. The inputs are arranged by their
priority status. Input #1 has all other ducked inputs under it, therefore if a signal is
detected, it will trigger Inputs 2 through 6 to duck. If Input #2 detects a signal and there is
no signal on Input #1, Input #2 will trigger inputs 5 and 6 to duck. However if the Input #1
signal exceeds the threshold, it will then duck all inputs including Input #2.
notE: Ducking attenuation is not additive. When an input target is ducked,
regardless of how far down the priority line it is, the maximum attenuation is that
set for the individual input and virtual send in the
“by (dB):” column near the
center of the dialog box.
