Cuttertone effect

low frequencies stereo width (tunable)

Freq: select the cross frequency

Width: set the stereo width below the cross frequency

Examples:

  • make bass and bassdrum mono in a mix (focus and punch)

  • focus on the drums in a drumset recording while keeping the stereo width of the high frequencies

"acceleration limiter" with meter (tunable)

Freq: select the cross frequency

Acceleration: select the action of the acceleration limiter above the cross frequency

Meter: shows the action of the acceleration limiter. Setup the limiter to make it move for dynamic action

Examples:

  • limit high frequency content of a track or a mix

  • make the sound more "round"

  • reduce high frequency content in a track without making it dull

overall dynamics

Dynamics: set the amount of dynamics in a track or mix

It is not a limiter, audio is processed to get lower dynamics and higher rms level while keeping the peaks controlled

Examples:

  • make a mix sound more "vintage" (no faked effects like noise or rumble!)

  • manage depth in a mix (sources closer to the listener sound more dynamic than far ones)

  • gain rms level

  • manage dynamics of tracks to make them sound more even

Mid/Side balance

Width: balance Mid and Side content of the stereo signal, from 0% wide to 200% wide (antiphase)

Examples:

  • manage overall stereo width of a stereo track or a mix

  • check the "focus" of your mix, by moving the control and listening

  • check the distribution of the mix between Mid and Side

  • add focus to a too wide mix or stereo track

  • enhance stereo width of a stereo track or mix
