Sidechain Fader Groups 1/2/3
The DXP pages reveal separate controls for Sidechain 1-3
plus LFE. This allows for different settings for the Center
or Surround channels, where speech intelligibility or low
level ambience tend to get lost, like when a feature film is
re-purposed for broadcast or DVD under domestic listening
conditions.
If it is required to process more audio channels than 5.1,
Engines can be run in parallel to cater for 6.1, 7.1, 10.2,
12.2 or even higher number formats. Parallel Engines
attain perfect phase conservation and resolution, and do
not compromise audio in any way.
DXP - All
The “All” page gives and excellent overview of the three
SideChain parameters.
The All parameter grabs the Sidechain Mid value and
changes the Lo and Hi settings relative to this value. The
Sidechain All Threshold, Gain and Steer all parameter
is also per default assigned to Fader 4 on the Sidechain
pages.
