The control rack takes up the bottom half of the Pulsar Massive interface.
On each side, there are four almost identical vertical slices, representing the settings of each of
the four equalization filters (In/Out, Bell/Shelf, Gain, Bandwidth (Q), Frequency.

The switch in the center of the interface allows you to activate and deactivate the effect. You can
use this as a bypass button within the plugin itself, rather than relying on your DAW's bypass
functionality.

Auto Gain
With this setting activated, a compensatory gain will be applied, based on the settings of the
various bands. This helps you keep a constant sound level while adjusting the EQ controls,
helping you to judge your changes without needing to remember that "louder sounds better".
Note: the algorithm used does not perform actual real-time level measurements – it derives an
estimate based on EQ settings only. This enables it to work on a wide variety of musical
sources. Depending on the source, you will sometimes still need to make small adjustments with
the Output Gain knob.
