Decorrelate Tone parameter

Use the Decorrelate Tone parameter to sharpen

or dampen the de-correlation tone in the sur-

round channels.

Threshold parameter

Use the Threshold parameter to set the true-

peak limit threshold. The value set here is relative

to output level.

– For linear audio and most codecs, set the

Threshold parameter to -1dBFS.

– For AC3, setting the Threshold parameter be-

tween -3 and -6dBFS is recommended.

Link parameter

The Link parameter defines which limiters work

together.

C, LR, LFE setting

–

If the threshold is exceeded in the Center

channel, only that channel is limited.

–

If the threshold is exceeded in one of the other

Main channels, all Main channels excluding

Center are limited.

–

If the threshold is exceeded on the LFE chan-

nel, only that channel is limited.

LCR, LFE setting

–

If a threshold is exceeded in one of the Main

channels, all Main channels are limited.

–

If the threshold is exceeded on the LFE chan-

nel, LFE is limited independently.

All setting

–

If a threshold is exceeded in any channel, all

channels are limited.

Profile parameter

True-peak limiters may use different profiles.

And although all these profiles are adaptive,

they have been optimized for different applica-

tions. Use a profile that suits the signal being

processed.

The available settings are:

–

Dynamic

–

AC3 Codec

–

Universal

–

Loud

–

Voice

Please note that if the “AC3 Codec” profile is

used, the limiter threshold for the C channel is

actually 3 dB higher than set.

Output Fader parameter

The Output Fader parameter is a post-limiter

fader. Parameter range is from -100dB to 12dB.

Detect parameter – Detection modes

To avoid the need for metadata to control for-

mat switching, UpCon’s detector makes use of

advanced sensing with appropriate hysteresis

and timing computations. The Detect parameter
