4 DESCRIPTION OF CONTROLS
you activate HF-Cut Filter mode. This means that the upper edge of the bandpass
window is effectively at infinity Hz, and this is useful, for example, when you want to
duck the entire HF part of the signal.
In this mode you can think of operation as an HF-Cut Filter that activates only when
the signal reaches a certain threshold, in which the cut-off frequency is defined by
the lower edge of the bandpass window. This is how some more primitive
De-Essers work.

4.1 Basic Screen Controls
When you insert the plugin, the display defaults to a zoomed out mode, so you can see
immediately the overall picture of where the centre band is in the spectrum.
Whenever you move the centre band in any way, the centre frequency of the band is
clearly displayed (in yellow) at both the top and bottom of the display in an easy-to-read
format. This is so that those who are aiming for a particular frequency can see the centre
frequency clearly as they move towards it. Experienced engineers often recognise the
frequency they wish to subdue, and so want clear guidance to aim for that
frequency.
