2 mlan mixer is a software application that enables you to control the mixer functions of the mlan8p/ mlan8e from the computer as if you were controlling a normal mixing console. Mlan mixer offers independent eq and dynamics settings for each channel, making it possible to perform detailed mixing op...
3 the following screen appears when you start mlan mixer. If there are multiple mlan8p/mlan8es connected to the bus (system) of a macin- tosh computer, a window appears, prompting you to select the device you wish to control with the mlan mixer. You can select multiple devices to control simulta- ne...

29 dynamics dynamics processors are generally used to correct or control signal levels, although they can also be used creatively to shape a sound’s volume envelope. The following sections explain the comp, gate, ducking, expand, compander-(h), and compander-(s) dynamics processors, their param- ete...
30 out gain —this sets the compressor’s output signal level, and can be used to compensate for the overall level change caused by the compression process. Knee —this determines how compression is applied at the threshold point. When set to hard, com- pression at the specified ratio is applied as soo...
31 hold —this determines how long the gate stays open once the trigger signal has fallen below the threshold level. Attack —this determines how fast the gate opens when the signal exceeds the threshold level. Slow attack times can be used to remove the initial transient edge of percussive sounds. To...
32 expand an expander is similar to a compressor except that it works on signals below the threshold level. By reducing signals below the threshold level, the expander attenuates low-level noise, effectively increasing the dynamic range and improving the signal-to-noise performance. An expander set ...
33 compander (hard & soft) the hard (h) and soft (s) companders comprise of compressor, expander, and limiter. The limiter prevents output signals from exceeding 0 db. The compressor compresses signals that exceed the threshold level. The expander attenuates signals below the threshold and width. Th...
