Render DSP Page
Pressing the DOWN/NO button in this page will have no effect. Pressing the UP/YES button
will prompt you with an "Are you sure? Y/N" message. Pressing DOWN/NO will cancel
the DSP Render operation. Pressing UP/YES in this screen will render all DSP parameters
(Track Gain, Compression parameters, EQ parameters, Limiter parameters, Normalizer
parameters, and Track Fade parameters) to the destination track.
APPLICATION NOTE: It is sometimes necessary to apply DSP to a specific region of a
recording, without interrupting the flow of audio. Below are listed the steps to accomplish
that using MasterLink Version 2.0 features:
1. Select the Playlist and Track you wish to work on.
2. Determine the start of the region to which you wish to apply DSP.
3. Split the original Track at the start of the region (Section 2.2). You will now have two
Tracks in place of the original one.
4. Select the second track and determine the end of the region to which you wish to apply
DSP.
5. Split the Track at the end of the region. You will now have three tracks.
6. Select the second track again (this should now be only the region of interest), and apply
Track DSP as needed.
7. Render the DSP to the second Track (Section 3.4).
8. Join Tracks 3 to 2, and then Tracks 2 to 1 (Section 2.3). You will now have one continuous
track with the DSP changes applied to the appropriate region.

ESOLUTION
In MasterLink version 2.0 software the resolution of the Output Level parameter of the Look-
ahead Peak Limiter (DSP Page 3) has been increased. You may now adjust output resolution
in 0.1dB increments, compared to 0.25dB increments in version 1.xx software.
