Running within Digidesign’s TDM architecture, Phoenix is very DSP efficient. It will run
approximately twenty instances of a plug-in on a single DSP chip (HD system at 44.1 kHz
sample rate).

Phoenix’s color is dependant on signal level, program material and sample rate. A higher
sample rate results in smother sounds

The

Phoenix

plug-in suite provides a wide range of choices to make your digital world

sound warmer, fatter, and more analog. The plug-ins can be somewhat subtle, but the
cumulative affect when used on a number of tracks can bring back the warmth and rich-
ness which only analog recording has been able to provide.

By grabing the text “INPUT TRIM” with the mouse and moving in the vertical direction the
input trim level can be adjusted. It can also have a value between 0 and -12db entered into
the window. The Process level can be moved by a mouse by grabbing it’s knob and mov-
ing the mouse vertically. It can also have a value entered into it’s window with 0 db being
the maximum value. Phoenix is mono, multi-mono, stereo and 5.1 capable.

Installation
