PRIORITY FUNCTION ('DUCKING')
This function allows to get automatic level attenuation of one or more audio inputs (if
selected with DUCK buttons) when a signal is detected at the input(s) with the highest
priority level.
If there are more inputs all having the highest priority level, the function can be activated
by each of these.
If the SLAVE unit is present, two 'ducking' functions will be available: the first for
MASTER unit audio outputs only, the second for the SLAVE unit audio outputs only. This
selection needs to be made in advance by clicking either MASTER or SLAVE on the far
right of the main window.
The priority level, from 0 (lowest) to 10 (highest), is set in each input channel by
PRIORITY parameters.
Click DUCKING in the main window.
The THRESHOLD fader only refers to audio input(s) having the highest priority
level and allows to set the threshold (signal level expressed in decibels) above
which the 'ducking' function gets activated and all the other inputs (with lower
priority) get attenuated.
The reference audio source is / are the only input / inputs all having the
absolute highest priority level.
RANGE: allows to adjust the attenuation (dB) to apply to all inputs with lower
priority levels when the 'ducking' function is in progress.
Attack: adjusts the priority function attack time.
Release: adjusts the priority function release time.
DUCK: each button toggles the 'ducking' function for the respective input.
If the SLAVE unit is present, it will be possible to select either the MASTER unit
inputs (by clicking MASTER INPUTS) or the SLAVE unit inputs (by clicking SLAVE
INPUTS).
