The Mix knob is a mix control for the plug-in. Mix deter-

The range is from 0% (no processing) to 100% (wet, pro-
cessed signal only).
Note that when Mix is at 0%, the signal is still processed
by the Limit control if it is enabled, and by the band splitter
when in three-band mode. For a true bypass, the Power
switch should be used.
