Centers the signal via Feed | Cutoff sets the limit of frequencies that it affects.
They attenuate the input signal, giving space to the mix.
Makes it sound crunchier.
Applies a High-pass filter that removes bass frequencies. Switch to Low-pass to do the opposite.
They expand the signal, recreating a simple / smooth / full Dolby Atmos
Increases the dynamic range of bass, mids and treble.
Increases the dynamic range of the signal.
Creates a bedroom. Choose the Room size | Increase or decrease the Decay time | Choose between 0.00, 0.50 or 1.00 % Diffusion
They create a stereo separation effect.
Normalizes volume based on a Target | Reset history re-evaluates this operation (refresh) | Maximum history is arbitrary.
They prevent the signal from exceeding 0.00 dB and becoming distorted | Threshold can replace Autogain in exchange for messing up dynamics.
It's hard to find a perfect setup for every user, although it is possible to make some adjustments to customize its behavior:
-
Load analog-max, hifi or edm > Open the 1st Equalizer Band 1 options > Change the
Frequencyand/or reduce theGainand/or change theModeto BWC (BT)/(MT) as appropriate. -
Select Bass Enhancer > Set the
Amountto -6.00, -3.00 or 0.00 dB and/or theFloorto 29.14, 58.27 or 116.54 Hz -
Select 1st/2nd Multiband Compressor > Edit Band 1 options (Bypass/Compression mode/Attack Threshold/Ratio) and/or Band 2 Frequency (Start).
To achieve different styles, you can set the Attack Threshold to 0.00, -12.00, -24.00, -36.00, -48.00 or -60.00 dB, the Release Time to 0.00, 100.00, 200.00, 300.00, 400.00 or 500.00 ms, the Ratio to 1.20, 1.50, 2.00, 3.00 or 6.00 and the Reactivity to 10.0, 25.0, 50.0, 125.0 or 250.0 ms
It should not be noticeable unless the Limiter signal is oversaturated, but if that is the case, select the Smooth parameter and set a value between 0.00 and -48.00 dB (default: -5.00 dB) and/or reduce the Knee or the Input level.
Choose the one that best suits your needs. From a practical standpoint, the min version is stable and works in all possible scenarios, while the max version requires more processing and is experimental, but may sound more professional.
You can show or hide the native plugins interface to see the applied settings in more detail. Go to Preferences > Experimental Features and enable Native window of effects
Some effects are disabled by default; be sure to enable and test them. If you like the result, save it by overwriting the original file or creating a new one.
Select Stereo Tools and enable this option to add analog distortion (clipping) to the signal. Increase the S/C Level to make it more noticeable, but DON'T overdo it.
Since we DON'T support older versions, it's vital that you have the current stable branch for them to work. In any case, please refer to the Easy Effects changelog.
