3-Band Processing (Basic Controls)
This section combines a number of processing parameters and a few features incorporated
and available in SOUND4 BIG VOICE² - Base only. Like the noise gate, in the basic tab, the
parameters for all 3 bands are adjusted simultaneously.
Metering
– Depicts/Indicates the amount of gain reduction applied in each of the 3 processing
bands.
Gate Threshold
– Allows gate to the action of the processing section to be set. Once the level
reaches below the threshold, the action of the 3 bands will be frozen.
Fidelity
– The Fidelity control is intended to maintain the fidelity and spectral balance of the
original input signal (even if the audio is heavily processed) by proportionally modifying the
processing thresholds in the background to reach the percentage set within the parameter. A visible
indication of this action will not be evident but it will make a noticeable difference, especially with
aggressive processing settings.
Sound Impact System
– The Sound Impact System option makes the sound more impact and
punchy. This is done by dynamically adjusting the timing constants based on the incoming audio
and looking for changes smaller than the ones applied in this setting. The indicator placed in the
middle of the control window will display when SIS is in effect.
Drive
– Is used to apply more or less drive to the 3-Band processing section.
Threshold
– Will trim the threshold level where the processing begins to work.
Attack
– Is set in dB per second and is intended to control the attack time in the 3-Band
processing section.
Release
– Is set in dB per second and is used to control the release time for the 3-Band processing
section.
Out
– Is used to adjust the final output level of the 3-Band processing section.
3-Band Processing (Advanced Controls)
The advanced controls are virtually identical with the basic controls. They add additional
metering and access to each band’s controls. It includes individual adjustments for each band, as
well as an “All” adjustment option that will modify all values at once.
Metering
– Depicts the input levels of the 3-Band processing section as well as gain reduction
applied to each band by the processing in the section.
Gate Threshold
– Sets a gate to the action of the processing section. The action of the band will
be frozen below the set threshold.
Ratio
– Used to set the compression ratio of each band. The higher percentages are more
aggressive and the lower ones are less aggressive.
Fidelity
– The Fidelity control is intended to maintain the fidelity and spectral balance of the
