Waves Dynamics Processor MV360 User Manual - page 4

High Level Compressor  

The MV360˚ High Level Compression function is comprised of compression with 

automatic makeup gain and output level control.  

The Compressor function is similar to that of Waves Renaissance Vox. The compressor 

is controlled by the Threshold fader, which sets the amount of desired dynamic range 

compression. An automatic gain makeup function compensates for gain reduction 

resulting from the applied compression.  

Link Modes  

MV360° offers 5 Link Modes which let you use up to 3 separate sidechains that address 

the most commonly used sound stage disciplines.   

All Linked  

In this mode, all channels are linked, maintaining the balance between the 5 

main channels and the LFE channel.  

5 Linked | Sub   

This mode fully preserves the surround image, but does not attenuate/boost the 

directional channels in conjunction with peaks in the LFE channel.  

Front | Rear | Sub  

This mode is useful in situations when rear channel ambience and effects don’t 

require attenuation/boost in conjunction with front channel music or dialog.   

Center | Quad | Sub  

This mode offers independent dynamic control over dialog, overall surround 

image, and LFE channel.  

Center | Front LR | Rear (LFE Is Bypassed)  

This mode offers the most control over the surround image, and its functionality 

is similar to that of three independent dynamics processors.  

Dither 

MV360˚ automatically applies dither, which compensates for digital quantization 

errors.
