OVERLOUD GEMS VOICE
SWAP POSITION - On the top of the module, there is a white triangular button which can be found
on the EQUALIZER module too. You can click this button to move the EQUALIZER before the
MULTIBAND and have their contribution intervening in the wanted point of the processing.
COMPRESSOR
This module can be used when you need to control the voice dynamic variations.
COMP - Adjusts the amount of dynamic compression. This is internally done by lowering the
threshold or raising the input gain, depending on the selected Model
TIME - Adjusts the time constants of the compressor. When you increase time, the Release time is
increased and the Attack time is decreased, an viceversa.
EXP GATE - Adjusts the threshold of an expander gate, under which the input signal is reduced to
clean it from unwanted noise.
LF SENS - Adjusts the frequency of a High Pass Filter controlled by the audio program of the input
signal. The fi lter can reduce the compressor sensitivity to the lower vocal frequencies. When set
all the way counterclockwise, the fi lter is turned o ff .
EQUALIZER
Using the EQUALIZER you can adjust the harmonic content of the input signal. Useful when the
starting material has prominency or leakage of a range of frequencies. Or either when other
modules processing change the harmonic content by emphasising or
fi ltering out a frequency
range. Three bands are available, plus an optional SUB CUT control.
LOW GAIN - Adjusts the gain of the LOW frequencies.
LOW FREQ - Selects the LOW band frequency.
MID GAIN - Adjusts the gain of the MID frequencies.
MID FREQ - Selects the MID band frequency.
HIGH GAIN - Adjusts the gain of the HIGH fre-
quencies.
HIGH FREQ - Selects the HIGH band frequency.
SUB FREQ - Selects the SUB CUT frequency.
CUT - Switches ON/OFF the SUB CUT fi lter.
SPACE
SPACE is a multidimensional processor allowing to create or enhance the dimension and place-
ment of a voice in the mix.
AMOUNT - Adjusts the amount of reverb to add.
REV TIME - Adjusts the reverb time. Enabled when the SPACE model is a long tail reverb.
TONE - Adjusts the harmonic balance (color) of the reverb.
WIDE - Adjusts the wideness (stereo aperture) of the reverb.
DEPTH - Adjusts the predelay time which, on very short impulses, changes the perceived depth of
the recreated ambience.

The EQUALIZER can work from two di ff erent positions in the mod-
ules sequence. This feature allows to have the harmonic content
adjusted before or after the MULTIBAND / COMPRESSOR modules,
which are those that mainly shape the signal dynamics.
To move the EQUALIZER module to its alternative position, just click
the small white triangular button on its caption.
