Mastering Tool Kit Parameters

Algorithm

The Mastering Tool Kit's algorithms are composed from the following effects.
Algorithm Explanation
This divides the original sound into three frequency ranges:

Input

low, mid, and high.
3BANDCOMP This compresses the overall output signal when the input
(Compressor) volume level exceeds a set value.

Mixer

Adjusts the volume of each frequency band.

Limiter

This suppresses high-level signals to prevent distortion.

Output

This makes settings that affect the overall output.

Explanation
Sets the overall volume level before the
signal passes through the compressor.
This sets the amount of time by which the
source input sound is delayed.
This sets the frequency (in the lower range)
at which the source sound is split into
three separate ranges.
This sets the frequency (in the upper
range) at which the source sound is split
into three separate ranges.
Explanation
This parameter turns the compressor effect
on/off.
This sets the volume level at which the
lower-range compressor goes into effect.
This sets the ratio of suppression of the
lower-range output when the input level
exceeds the Lo threshold level.
This sets the time it takes for the lower-
range compressor to go into effect once
the input level exceeds the Lo threshold
level.
This sets the time it takes for the lower-
range compressor effect to stop once the
input level falls below the Lo threshold
level.
This sets the volume level at which the
midrange compressor goes into effect.
This sets the ratio of suppression of the
midrange output when the input level
exceeds the Middle threshold level.
This sets the time it takes for the midrange
compressor to go into effect once the input
level exceeds the Middle threshold level.
This sets the time it takes for the midrange
compressor effect to stop once the input
level falls below the Middle threshold level.
This sets the volume level at which the
upper-range compressor goes into effect.
This sets the ratio of suppression of the
upper-range output when the input level
exceeds the Hi threshold level.
This sets the time it takes for the upper-
range compressor to go into effect once
the input level exceeds the Hi threshold
level.
Parameter Value
Hi Release
50–5000ms
MEMO
With the compressor, the level is automatically adjusted to the optimum
setting according to the Threshold and Ratio settings. In addition, since
lengthening the Attack setting may result in distortion, a margin of -6 dB is
provided. Adjust the Mixer level as needed.
MIXER
Parameter Value
Lo Level -80–+6dB
Mid Level -80–+6dB
Hi Level -80–+6dB
LIMITER
Parameter Value
On/Off OFF, ON
Threshold -24–0dB
Attack 0–100ms
Release 50–5000ms
OUTPUT
Parameter Value
Level -80–+6dB
Explanation
This sets the time it takes for the upper-
range compressor effect to stop once the
input level falls below the Hi threshold
level.
Explanation
Sets the volume level of the lower range
after the signal passes through the
compressor.
Sets the volume level of the midrange after
the signal passes through the compressor.
Sets the volume level of the upper range
after the signal passes through the
compressor.
Explanation
Sets the limiter to ON or OFF.
Adjust this parameter to match the signal.
Limiting will be applied to input levels in
excess of this level.
This sets the time it takes for the limiter to
go into effect once the input level exceeds
the threshold level.
Adjusts the time until when the limiter will
turn off after the input level falls below the
threshold level.
Explanation
Sets the volume level of the overall sound
after the signal passes through the limiter.
