Description

Channels to use for control signal

Select the check box for each channel you want to use to determine the compression or gain that will be applied.

Channels to affect

Select the check box for each channel you want the plug-in to affect.

For example, if you wanted to duck (reduce) the level of the surround speakers when the center channel reaches a certain level, select the Channels to use for control signal check box for the center channel and select the Channels to affect check box the left, right, left surround and right surround channels.

When the center channel exceeds the Threshold setting on the Compressor or Volume Maximizer tabs, the plug-in will duck the four surround channels by the amount the center channel exceeds the threshold.

NOTE

If you add the plug-in to a track or a bus other than the Surround Master bus, only the left and right channels are available. Only the Surround Master bus supports 5.1 channels.
