Dynamics Detector To Ratio Menu - Omnia .9 Installation & User Manual

INPUTS 1/2/3 SOURCE AUDIO MENU
The degree to which each dynamics detector band influences and controls each expander band is determined by a 5 x 5 slider
matrix. Each column represents a dynamics detector band, while each row represents an expander band.
The default (and recommended) settings are set up so that each expander band controlled almost entirely by its corresponding
dynamics detector band, but with some control provided by surrounding dynamics detector bands. Higher values mean a
particular dynamics detector band has more influence over a particular expander band, and vice versa.
Please note that in order to provide a means by which to allow one dynamics detector band to provide 100% of the control
over a single expander band, every control must be designed to go all the way to 100. When one control is set to 100 and other
controls in that band are set to a value higher than 0, thereby causing a sum greater than 100, Undo interprets that information
and adjusts the settings of each band to maintain the desired proportion of influence you have set for each band relative to 100.

Dynamics Detector to Ratio Menu

The Dynamics Detector to Ratio menu allows you to set time constants of the expansion ratio adjustment as well as the
Expansion Start levels and Transition Width levels for each of the 5 bands of Undo's multiband expander.
The Attack and Release controls for each band determines how quickly the expansion ratio will track along with the
♦
dynamic detector settings. The default (and recommended) setting is 100, which means the expansion ratio will track
instantaneously with no additional delay.
When the dynamics detector falls below a certain level, expansion will begin, starting at a minimum ratio of 1:1 and
♦
increasing to a maximum ratio of 4:1. The point at which that expansion begins to occur is set by the Expansion Start
control in each band.
The relative point at which the expansion reaches its full 4:1 ratio is determined by the setting of the Transition Width
♦
control in each band.
