High Pass Filter
The first control on the far left of the Fat Channel, and in its signal chain,
is the High Pass Filter. A high-pass filter attenuates all frequencies below
the set threshold. Use this filter to remove unwanted low-frequencies
from your source signal, rather than trying to EQ them out.
The high-pass filter is available on every input channel,
the four aux buses, and both internal FX buses.
High Pass Filter On/Off. Turns the High Pass Filter On/Off for the Selected Channel
or Output Bus.
This button engages and disengages the high-pass filter for the selected channel or
output bus. It will illuminate to indicate that the high-pass filter has been enabled.
High Pass Filter Frequency. Adjusts the High Pass Filter’s Cutoff Frequency.
The High Pass Filter section consists of an encoder and a
meter. Frequency range is indicated to the left of the meter.
The filter’s threshold can be set from 24 Hz to 1.3 kHz.
The High Pass Filter’s slope is -6 dB/octave.
4.3.3
Gate
Your StudioLive 16.0.2 USB is equipped with a downward expander that is
available for every input channel, the four aux buses, and both internal FX buses.
In contrast to compression, which decreases the level of a signal after it rises above
the compression threshold, expansion decreases the level of a signal after the
signal goes below the expansion threshold. Commonly used for noise reduction,
the major difference between expansion and noise gating is that expansion
is dependent on the signal level after the level crosses the threshold, whereas
a noise gate works independent of a signal’s level beyond the threshold.
Gate On/Off Button. Turns the Gate On/Off for the Selected Channel.
This button engages and disengages the gate for the selected channel. It will
illuminate to indicate that the gate has been enabled.
