Effects
Compressors, Expanders, and Gates
Mid
n
Gain
sets
the
cut
or
boost
for
the
parametric
band
n
,
with
a
range
of
‐
79
to
+24
dB.
Mid
n
Freq
sets
the
center
frequency
for
parametric
band
n
,
with
a
range
of
16
to
25088
Hz,
in
increments
of
a
semitone.
Mid
n
Width
set
the
bandwidth
of
the
filter
on
band
n
,
with
a
range
of
0.01
to
5
octaves.
Enhancers
Enhancers
modify
the
spectral
content
of
the
input
signal
by
boosting
existing
spectral
content,
or
stimulating
new
ones.
Two
‐
and
three
‐
band
versions
are
provided.
Drive
adjusts
the
input
into
each
band.
Increasing
the
drive
will
increase
the
effects.
Range
is
‐
79.0
to
24.0
dB.
Xfer
adjusts
the
intensity
of
the
transfer
curves.
Range
is
‐
100
to
100%.
EQ Morpher
This
algorithm
uses
two
four
‐
band
bandpass
filters,
A
and
B,
and
moves
between
them,
which
among
other
things,
can
produce
a
very
convincing
simulation
of
a
human
vocal
tract.
FreqScale
offsets
the
filter
frequencies
for
each
set
of
filters.
After
setting
the
filter
parameters
(
Freq
,
Gain
,
and
Width
),
the
FreqScale
parameters
will
move
each
of
the
four
filter
frequencies
together
by
the
same
relative
pitch.
Range
is
‐
8600
to
8600
cents.
Morph
A>B
.
When
set
to
0%
the
“A”
parameters
are
controlling
the
filters,
and
when
set
to
100%,
the
“B”
parameters
control
the
filters.
Between
0
and
100%,
the
filters
are
at
interpolated
positions.
When
morphing
from
A
to
B
settings,
the
A
filter
#1
will
change
to
the
B
filter
#1,
A
filter
#2
moves
to
B
filter
#2,
and
so
on.
Range
is
0
to
100%.
Compressors, Expanders, and Gates
A
wide
range
of
Compression
and
Expansion
effects
is
available
in
the
PC3K.
The
various
algorithms
include
different
combinations
of:
•
compressors
with
soft
‐
knee
characteristic—the
compression
action
comes
in
gradually
as
the
signal
level
approaches
the
threshold
•
compressors
with
hard
‐
knee
characteristic—the
compression
action
comes
in
abruptly
when
the
signal
reaches
the
threshold
•
expanders
•
multiband
compressors
that
break
the
signal
up
into
three
frequency
bands
and
compress
them
all
separately
•
sidechains
or
output
EQs
•
reverbs
and
compressors
in
combination
•
gates
•
gated
reverbs
All
of
the
Compression
algorithms
use
these
parameters:
FdbkComprs
(Feedback
Compression)
selects
whether
to
use
feed
‐
forward
(set
this
to
“Out”)
or
feed
‐
back
(set
this
to
“In”)
compression.
The
feed
‐
forward
configuration
uses
the
input
signal
as
a
side
‐
chain
source,
which
is
useful
when
the
compressor
has
to
act
really
quickly.
The
feed
‐
back
configuration
uses
the
compressor
output
as
the
side
‐
chain
source,
which
lends
itself
to
more
subtle,
but
not
as
quick
‐
reacting,
compression.
Atk
(Attack)
Time
for
the
compressor
is
adjustable
from
0.0
to
228.0
ms.
Rel
(Release)
Time
for
the
compressor
is
adjustable
from
0
to
3000
ms.
