Crossover Processor

There are three components in the Crossover Processor group: 2-Way, 3-Way, and
4-Way. Each processor consists of a delay, crossover, 3-band PEQ, and compressor.
Crossover slopes include 12 dB/octave, 24 dB/octave, 36 dB/octave, and 48 dB/octave,
and filter types include Butterworth, Bessel, and Linkwitz-Riley. In addition to the fea-
tures found on the standard Crossover components, the low channel of each Crossover
Processor features a HPF for removing unwanted low-frequency signals.
2-Way Processor
The 2-Way Processor component splits the input signal into two frequency chan-
nels—high and low—with delay, 3-band PEQ, and compressor on each channel.
The following block diagram offers an overview of the 2-Way Processor.
The 2-Way Processor control window features INPUT, OUTPUT, and control sections,
with DELAY, CROSS, EQ, and COMP pages selected by clicking the tabs along the top
of the control window, as shown below.
