Element Description
Bypass:
Switches off the Ducker's operations.
Active:
Lights up when the Ducker is active while the signal has been detected on input S.
Thd.:
Threshold of detection on the input channel (S). The input channel (A) is attenuate when the
input channel (S) goes above this threshold.
To avoid the unexpected attenuation, don't set a threshold level that is too low.
Response Time:
Adjust the time between the S level's detection and the beginning of the Ducker’s operation on
the A signal.
Don't set a "response time" that is too long otherwise you won't hear the beginning of the
(S) signal (as the first word of a speech).
Attack Time:
Adjusts the fade-in time of the (A) signal when the Ducker is working.
Hold Time
Adjusts the time between the end (S) level's detection and the end of the Ducker’s operation.
Set enough "Hold time" to avoid the unexpected background level during the speeches
breaks.
Release Time:
Adjusts the fade-out time of the (A) signal when the Ducker is no longer working.
Audio Depth:
Adjusts the (A) level when the Ducker is active.
Speech Gain:
Adjusts the (S) level when the Ducker is active.
