Mix Controller
The mix controller makes it possible to cross-fade between the unprocessed and the compressed/
filtered signals. This allows parallel compression right in the alpha compressor and renders addi-
tional routings unnecessary in favor of a better signal quality.
Now you can use even extreme compression settings without killing the track by winning the
loudness war. By mixing just a part of the compressed signal to the original, the major portion of
the initial dynamic structure remains.
The control logic of this feature is also worth mentioning. If only the compressed button is pushed,
you will hear the compressed signal only. Otherwise, if only the direct button is pushed, only the
unprocessed signal routed from before the compressor section will be audible. If both buttons are
pushed, the mix controller will become active, and if none of the buttons is pushed, the channel
will be muted.
In practice you can switch between unprocessed, compressed or mixed signals very fast without
having to change the position of the mix controller.
In this way, the left and right channels (stereo mode) respectively the middle and side channels
(M/S mode) can be listened to separately – here you again have the choice between the original,
the compressed or the mixed signal. To mute the other channel, just deactivate the associated
direct and compressed buttons.
