AUDIO CONTROL
16.9.9 Expander
The multiband expander is used to reduce the background noise on vocal audio signals or a microphone, or to reduce
unwanted effects caused by the introduction of strong compressions. The allowed and available values range from
OFF
to +5. To ensure the adjustments are performed properly, we recommend you listen to the voices without music, or keep
the background music low. Levels above 3 tend to clean the voice, however, they also tend to decrease the brilliance of
the sound under certain operating conditions. This command uses the same expansion process as the Lookahead
Limiter and therefore it does not add any delay. To be able to use the expander control, the Lookahead Limiter must be
in the
ON position.
16.9.10 Super Bass Harmonizer
(label = ‘S.B. Harm’). This control monitors maximum distortion of low frequencies. It lets you clip the low frequencies in
order to obtain a much more pleasant sound for the bass part and, at the same time, tends to increase the energy always
transmitted at low frequencies.
16.9.11 Final Limiter Section
In the upper part of the control software you can see the Final Limiter with its indications and level of work. Specifically,
the five histograms represent the following functions:
HF: High Frequency Limiter is the stage that occurs on the amount of emphasis applied to the original signal. If this
control is set too high, or works in the red area indicates that the preset you are using was created evil, and there is an
excess of compression or working on high frequencies.
BF:
Final Bass Limiter, this limiter works on Bass, If this control is set too high, or works in the red area indicates that the
preset you are using was created evil, and there is an excess of compression or work on the frequencies high.
MF:
Main Frequency Limiter, this whole band limiter intervenes between 350Hz and 15kHz. The action of this control can
be strongly influenced by the Final Limiter Drive control on the third Falcon and Falcon VS, while on Falcon XT control is
called Main Final Limiter Drive. If this control is set too high, or works in the red area indicates that the preset you are
using was created evil, and there is an excess of compression or working on high frequencies
.
LA:
Look Ahead Limiter Limiter intervention. If this control is set too high, or works in the red area indicates that the
preset you are using was created evil, and there is an excess of compression or working on high frequencies .
PA:
Power Attenuator, when the Power Control ITU-R BS.412 is activated, this control indicates to what intervenes the
Power Control. If this control is set too high, or works in the red area indicates that the preset you are using was created
evil, and there is an excess of compression or working in the high frequency.
