ENVELOPE MODE
To select the Envelope mode
Press the ENVELOPE MODE key in the Spectral Adjust
section.
Input Section
Input Level
Adjusts the Input level of the TRIPLE•C. Play your source
material through the TRIPLE•C and observe the Input
meters in the display. Correct operation level is approx -6
to -3dBs with an occasional peak at 0dB. If the the Input
signal at any time overloads, - reduce the Input level.
Dynamic Section
Threshold (1)
When the signal is above the set Threshold point the
Compressor is activated and the gain of any signal above
the Threshold point is processed according to the Attack
and Release settings.
Envelope Attack Gain (2)
This is the level the signal will be boosted/attenuated to in
0.1ms (fixed response time) when the signal exceeds the
Threshold.
Attack (3)
The Attack time is the time it takes for the Compressor to
reach Threshold level again.
Sustain Period (4)
This is not an adjustable parameter. The signal is sustained
at the Threshold level until the Input signal drops below the
Threshold point (5).
Release (6)
The Release time Defines the time the Compressor
continues to process the signal after the Input signal has
dropped below Threshold.
Envelope Release Gain
This is the gain applied to the signal after the signal has
dropped below the Threshold point. This can be used e.g.
to manipulate the sustain of the signal.
Peak Type
Peak Type is not available in the Envelope mode.
Envelope mode is a special feature of the TRIPLE•C that lets you control the entire compression process in detail allowing full
control from the point where the Compressor starts modifying the signal until it releases its grip again.
