Dynamic processing in up to four separate frequency bands.Adjustable make-up gain specified in dB with optional automatic mode.Channel linking can be set between 0 (no link) and 100% (all channel share the same gain control signal).Adjustable attack, hold and release times specified in milliseconds.Acts as a compressor for ratios over 1:1 and as an expander or gate for ratios below 1:1.Threshold and ratio can be adjusted directly in the level history curve or using knobs.Powerful side chain filtering with full EQ section - low cut, low shelf, bell, high shelf and high cut filters.Latency and look-ahead can be set anywhere between 0 and 30 milliseconds.Intelligent look-ahead algorithm that reduces distortion to a minimum.You can adjust the maximum gain and the filter length of the frequency response of the noise shaping filter is visualized graphically.
That gives a unique control over potential pre-ringing artifacts which is a common problem with linear phase filtering.ĭither is a dithering plug-in with flexible perceptual noise shaping. The mixed phase mode allows you to set the latency freely in the range 5 to 120 milliseconds while preserving the phase relationships as far as possible. You can operate Equalize as a zero latency plug-in when using the minimum phase mode, choose to preserve the phase relationships in the linear phase mode or use the unique mixed phase mode.
The filter slope can be set anywhere from 3 dB to ultra-sharp 120 dB per octave. Unlike other equalizers, you can freely adjust not only center frequency, gain and bandwidths, but also the filter slope for each band. You can use up to 4 times oversampling for true peak limiting and to further reduce distortion.Įqualize is a parametric equalizer.
The limiting is performed in a two step process with a pre-compressor follower by the actual peak limiting algorithm. Limit is a transparent limiter with intelligent look-ahead in the range 0 to 30 milliseconds that reduces distortion to a minimum. Multiband Dynamics operates in linear phase mode to avoid phase issues between the processed bands. You can freely set the cross-over frequencies and even the filter slopes can be set freely in the range 6 and 48 dB per octave. Multiband Dynamics is the multiband extension of Dynamics which allows dynamic processing in up to four separate bands. The complexity of algorithms is not reflected in the intuitive user interface which provides graphical visualizations of all aspects of the processing. The side chain signal can be either internal or external and there’s a full blown side chain equalizer integrated with low cut, low shelf, peak, high shelf and high cut filters. You can use up to 4 times oversampling to further reduce distortion. The look-ahead can be set anywhere from 0 to 30 milliseconds and the intelligent algorithm ensures a band-limited gain signal which reduces potential distortion to a minimum even with minimal attack and release times. Acon Digital Mastering Suite consists of five plug-ins for audio mastering that were designed for ultimate signal transparency:ĭynamics is a combined compressor, expander or gate.
