Touch the green Vistonics dynamics field.
This view is the same as with mono or stereo channels with one exception,
refer to the screenshot below. Please note that the dynamics settings applied
here will be valid for all surround signal legs except the LFE.
If a dynamics setting has been made on a 5.1 surround channel, the default
Vistonics dynamics display shows in small characters which signal leg is
different from the others (in this case, only 'Lf' is shown since the LFE's EQ
setting is not modified), as shown left.
If one or more of the signal legs must be adjusted differently from others –
such as adding expansion in the center channel only, the CHANNEL VIEW has
to be selected. Then all the separate dynamics settings for 'Front', 'Center',
'LFE' and 'Rear' are accessible. Please note that there also is a gain reduction
indication at the left of each of the four individual dynamics icons.
sC LInK The Side-Chain Link function allows forming a side-chain group from up to
eight channels in order to control the dynamics of all of them by the maximum
level of all side-chain group members. Side-chains are defined in the GC's
Channel Patch window ('Sidechain Link Setup', tick 'Enable side Chain
Link'). The rotary encoder selects the surround signal legs used for the side-
chain group; for details, see the block diagram below.
