Dynamic EQ Modules

The Dynamic EQ Modules each have seven parameters:

  • Frequency
  • Bandwidth
  • Threshold
  • Maximum Gain Reduction
  • Ratio
  • Attack
  • Release

 

The Dynamic EQ can be regarded as a compressor that operate at definable Bell EQ frequency band, set by the frequency, bandwidth, and maximum gain reduction controls, with familiar compressor controls of threshold, ratio, and attack and release times.

 

  • Frequency can be adjusted by dragging the DE (Dynamic EQ) top ball, or using the frequency control in the Module EDIT View.
  • Bandwidth can be adjusted by dragging the BW ball, or using the bandwidth control in the Module EDIT View. The range is 0.2 to 4.0 octaves.
  • Threshold level can be adjusted by dragging the T ball, or using the threshold control in the Module EDIT View. The range is 0.0 to –60.0 dB.
  • Maximum gain reduction can be adjusted by dragging the G ball, or using the maximum gain reduction control in the Module EDIT View. The range is 0.0 to –18.0 dB.
  • Ratio can be adjusted by dragging the R ball, or using the ratio control in the Module EDIT View. The range is from 1.00:1 to infinity:1.
  • Attack and Release times can only be adjusted using their respective controls in the Module EDIT View. The adjustment range is 0.1 to 200 ms (attack) and 5 to 1500 ms (release).

 

As with the other modules, if Ctrl is held down while you click and drag a control, then two parameters can be changed at the same time. For example:

  • To change the frequency and gain reduction at the same time, hold Ctrl and click and drag the DE or G ball, left and right (to change frequency) and up and down (to change gain reduction). Note that the current frequency and gain values are displayed at the bottom.
  • To change the bandwidth and gain at the same time, hold Ctrl and click and drag the BW ball left and right (to change bandwidth) and up and down to change gain reduction. Note: this can also be done by pressing Alt and dragging the G ball.
