which could otherwise cause unnatural stridency and brightness in strings and horns
and which could pump up very low frequency rumble in live recording venues.
The Five-Band preset defeats the AGC, using only the five-band compressor for gain
reduction. It also defeats phase rotation to ensure the most transparent Five-Band
sound available.
Even more transparent, “purist” classical processing is available from the
CLASSICAL
2-BAND
preset, which is phase-linear and which preserves the spectral
balance of the original material as much as possible. However, if you need a bit
more automatic re-equalization than the
CLASSICAL
2-BAND
preset provides, use
the
CLASSICAL
5-BAND
preset.
CLASSICAL-5B+AGC
uses the AGC set for 2:1 compression ratio. Because of the
AGC, it affects more of the total dynamic range of the recording than does the
CLASSICAL-5
BAND
preset. However, the AGC provides extremely smooth and un-
obtrusive compression because of the gentle ratio and window gating. This preset
uses the Five-Band compressor very lightly with a fast release time as a peak limiter.
The AGC does almost all of the compression.
There is also a corresponding two-band preset called
CLASSICAL-2B+AGC
.
COUNTRY:
The
COUNTRY-MEDIUM
preset uses the
ROCK-SMOOTH
source preset.
It has a gentle bass lift and a mellow, easy-to-listen-to high end, along with enough
presence energy to help vocals to stand out. The
COUNTRY-LIGHT
preset uses the
ROCK-LIGHT
source preset. Modern country broadcasters might also find
ROCK-
MEDIUM
or
ROCK-OPEN
useful if they want a brighter, more up-front sound.
CRISP:
CRISP
provides a bright upper midrange sound by emphasizing frequencies
around 6 kHz. It is a loud preset that is appropriate for mass-appeal music formats. It
has the same bass texture as the
IMPACT
presets.
DANCE ENERGY:
This preset is designed to preserve the punch and slam in dance
music percussion (such as the beater click in kick drums). It is loud and has a bright
high frequency texture. As
L
ESS
-M
ORE
is turned down, this preset get quieter, yet
punchier.
EDGE:
This preset is designed for hit music broadcasters who prefer extremely
punchy bass to fastidious distortion control. It is loud and has a bright high fre-
quency texture.
FOLK / TRADITIONAL:
FOLK
/
TRADITIONAL
is an alias for the
ROCK-SOFT
preset.
It assumes that the recordings are of relatively recent vintage and require relatively
subtle processing.
If the recordings you play are inconsistent in texture and equalization, you may pre-
fer the
ROCK-SMOOTH
or ROCK-LIGHT presets.
GOLD:
GOLD
is loud and “hi-fi”-sounding while still respecting the limitations and
basic flavor of the recordings from the era of the 1950s through 1970s.
