Multiband AGC
This section is the heart of the dynamics processing engine. A multiband AGC (i.e. com-
pressor) that allows for medium ratio (3:1 is default) adjustment of audio band:
-Sets the speed at which the release time is increased faster at very low gain val-
ues. This feature approximates a logarithmic release to help recovery from dra-
matic gain reduction more quickly.
• Number of Bands: Four/Five/Six/Seven Bands (default: five bands)
• Ratio: 1.0:1 - Inf:1
• B1-B5 Inf:1 Above Thresh: Enabled / Disabled
-AGC automatically increases ratio to Infinity:1 once a signal exceeds the
threshold (set below), allowing for expansion below the threshold and limiting
above the threshold. Useful for bass frequency control.
• Range: 0dB - 24dB
-Range sets how much gain expansion above unity is able to be performed.
This adjustment is reflected in real time by changing the AGC meter scale.
• Progressive Release: 0 - 100, slowest - fastest
-Sets the speed at which the release time is increased faster at very low gain val-
ues. This feature approximates a logarithmic release to help recovery from dra-
matic gain reduction more quickly.
• B1 - B5 AGC Attack: 0 - 150, slowest - fastest
-How fast an input signal is acted upon once is crosses the set threshold
• B1 - B5 AGC Release: 0 - 150, slowest - fastest
-How fast an input signal recovers from a gain change once that signal falls be-
low the set threshold.
• B1 - B5 AGC Thresh(old): -12.00dB - +12.00dB
-The reference point for the attack and release parameters to act on the audio
signal present in that band.
• MB Gating Thresh(old): 0dBFS to -90 dBFS
