High Peak
Controls
HM Frequency
This switch determines the frequency of the high-midrange
portion of the equalizer. Five frequencies are available: 1.5,
2, 3, 4, and 5 KCS.
Tip: To cycle through the available values, click the “PEAK”
text label, or shift+click the text label to cycle through available values in re-
verse. These shortcuts are unavailable with the Legacy version of the plug-in.
HM Boost
This knob determines the amount of high-midrange gain to be
applied to the frequency set by the high-mid frequency selec-
tor.
Bypass/Gain
This is dual purpose knob is an output gain control, and a plug-in
bypass control. The available output gain range is ±12 dB.
Rotate the control fully counter-clockwise to bypass plug-in process-
ing and reduce UAD DSP load (DSP load is not reduced if UAD-2
DSP LoadLock is enabled).
Tip: Click the “OFF” text label or the red power lamp to toggle between by-
pass and the previous value.
Tip: Click the “0” text label to set the gain to 0 dB.
Pultec HLF-3C Controls
Unity Gain The Pultec HLF-3C hardware unit is a true passive design; there are no in-
put/output amplifiers and it does not require any external power. As a result,
there is an inherent loss of signal level when using the HLF-3C hardware.
The Pultec HLF-3C plug-in compensates for this inherent signal loss for simpli-
fied use in the modern era; it has unity gain upon insertion (there is no inser-
tion loss until one or both of the cut filters is engaged).
