Effect Algorithm

COMP (Compressor)
Compresses the entire output signals when the input volume exceeds a specified value. Parameter (full name)
Sw (Switch) HIGH THRE (High Threshold) HIGH RATIO HIGH ATK (High Attack) HIGH REL (High Release) MID THRE (Middle Threshold) MID RATIO (Middle Ratio) MID ATK (Middle Attack) MID REL (Middle Release) LOW THRE (Low Threshold) LOW RATIO LOW ATK (Low Attack) LOW REL (Low Release)

Setting
OFF, ON -24.0~0.0 dB 1:1.00~1:16.0, 1:� 0~800.0 ms 50~8000 ms -24.0~0.0 dB 1:1.00~1:16.0, 1:� 0~800.0 ms 50~8000 ms -24.0~0.0 dB 1:1.00~1:16.0, 1:� 0~800.0 ms 50~8000 ms

Function
Turns the compressor on or off. Sets the volume at which the compressor for the High frequency band starts working. Sets the ratio at which the output in the High frequency band is suppressed when the input level has exceeded the High threshold level. Sets the time until when the High frequency band compressor starts working after the input level has exceeded the High threshold level. Sets the time until when the High frequency band compressor stops working after the input level has dropped below the High threshold level. Sets the volume at which the compressor in the Middle frequency band starts working. Sets the ratio at which the output in the Middle frequency band is suppressed when the input level has exceeded the Middle threshold level. Sets the time until when the Middle frequency band compressor starts working after the input level has exceeded the Middle threshold level. Sets the time until when the Middle frequency band compressor stops working after the input level has dropped below the Middle threshold level. Sets the volume at which the compressor for the Low frequency band starts working. Sets the ratio at which the output in the Low frequency band is suppressed when the input level has exceeded the Low threshold level. Sets the time until when the Low frequency band compressor starts working after the input level has exceeded the Low threshold level. Sets the time until when the Low frequency band compressor stops working after the input level has dropped below the Low threshold level.

MIXER
Adjusts the volume for each frequency band. (*2) Parameter (full name)
HIGH (High Level) MID (Middle Level) LOW (Low Level)

Setting
-�, -80.0~6.0 dB -�, -80.0~6.0 dB -�, -80.0~6.0 dB

Function
Sets the volume in the High frequency band after passing through the expander and compressor. Sets the volume in the Middle frequency band after passing through the expander and compressor. Sets the volume in the Low frequency band after passing through the expander and compressor.

(*2) With Compressor, the level is automatically adjusted to the optimal value according to the settings for Threshold (THRE) and Ratio (RATIO). Setting Attack (ATK) to a relatively long time may cause distortion. For this reason, a margin of -6 dB is provided. Adjust the Mixer level as required.

LIMITER
Prevents distortion by suppressing signals at High levels. Parameter (full name)
Sw (Switch) THRE (Threshold) ATK (Attack) REL (Release)

Setting
OFF, ON -24.0~0.0 dB 0.0~800.0 ms 50~8000 ms

Function
Turns the limiter on or off. Sets the volume at which the limiter starts working. Sets the time until when the limiter starts working after the input level has exceeded threshold level. Sets the time until when the limiter stops working after the input level drops below the threshold level.

SOFT CLIP
Suppresses conspicuous distortion that may occur when the effect of compressor/limiter has been applied excessively. Parameter (full name)
Sw (Switch)

Setting
OFF, ON

Function
Turns the soft clip on or off.

OUTPUT
Provides settings concerning overall output. Parameter (full name)
LEVEL (Output Level)

Setting
-�, -80.0~6.0 dB

Function
Sets the output level of the Mastering Tool Kit.
