Cut Filters
In addition to the four-band EQ, UAD Neve 88RS offers
two cut filters, one each for low and high frequencies.
The slope of the cut filters is 12 dB per octave. Each cut
filter has two controls: Cut Enable and Frequency. Both
controls are detailed below.
Note: UAD DSP load is not reduced when the cut filters
are disabled.
Cut Enable This button activates the cut filter. The cut filter is active when the
button is gray and the red indicator illuminates.
Cut Frequency This knob determines the cutoff frequency for the cut filter.
The available range is 7.5 kHz to 18 kHz for the high cut fil-
ter (lighter blue control), and 31.5 Hz to 315 Hz for the low
cut filter (darker blue control).
Global
Sidechain EQ
(SC-EQ)
This control enables the UAD Neve 88RS sidechain function.
When sidechain is active, signal output from the EQ module is re-
moved from the audio path and is instead routed to control the dy-
namics module.
Sidechaining is typically used for de-essing and similar frequency-conscious
techniques. To listen to the sidechain key, simply disengage SC-EQ to hear
the EQ'd signal. The sidechain dynamics/EQ implementations are true stereo
when used in a stereo in/stereo out configuration.
Note: The EQ module must be active in conjunction with SC-EQ for the
sidechain to function (see “EQ Enable (EQ)” on page 283 ).
Pre-Dynamics
(P-DYN)
This button re-routes the UAD Neve 88RS signal. Normally, the au-
dio signal is routed from the dynamics module into the EQ module
(i.e., the EQ is post-dynamics). When P-DYN is enabled, the EQ
module precedes the dynamics module.
Pre-dynamics is active when the button is gray and the red indicator illumi-
nates.
