THE EFFECT DEVICES

335

The MClass effects

The MClass package consists of four effect devices, which are available separately or

grouped together in the “MClass Mastering Suite Combi”. As the name implies, the

effects are suitable for mastering purposes, i.e. to process the final mixed output, but

can of course be used to process individual devices as well. The individual MClass ef-

fects are as follows:

• The MClass Equalizer - this has low and high shelving bands, two fully parametric

bands and a low cut “anti-rumble” switch. See “The MClass Equalizer”.

• The MClass Stereo Imager - this can be used to control the stereo width for the

high and low frequency ranges separately. See “The MClass Stereo Imager”.

• The MClass Compressor - this single band compressor features sidechain input

and program-adaptive release. See “The MClass Compressor”.

• The MClass Maximizer is a special limiter tailored for loudness maximizing without

risk of clipping. See “The MClass Maximizer”.

The MClass Mastering Suite Combi

Selecting the MClass Mastering Suite will create a Combinator device containing all

four MClass effects with all internal routing between the devices already made, and

with the first patch in the “MClass Mastering Patches” folder loaded.

This Factory Sound Bank folder contains many MClass Combi patches, with descrip-

tive names indicating how the effects will affect the sound - use the patch selectors

on the Combinator panel to try out different mastering patches!

In addition, most of these Combis have logical parameters and functions linked to the

knobs and buttons on the Combinator Programmer panel, which makes the MClass

Mastering Suite Combi very simple and intuitive to operate.

By using the rotaries and buttons on the Combinator you can fine-tune the sound to

your liking. If you need more control, click “Show Devices” and make settings on the

individual MClass devices.

Connections

When using the MClass Mastering Suite Combi for mastering purposes, the Combi-

nator should be connected at the very end of the signal chain, inserted between the fi-

nal mixed output and the Hardware Interface.

D If you select the Hardware Interface and then create a MClass Mastering

Suite Combi, the correct connections will be auto-routed.

! For descriptions of how to use Combinator devices please refer to the

Combinator chapter.

The MClass Equalizer

The MClass Equalizer consists of two independent, fully parametric bands plus high

and low shelving bands and a lo cut switch.

This is most often used as an insert effect, in mono or stereo.

Activating the separate EQ bands

The separate bands are organized as vertical strips on the panel, in the following or-

der (from left to right): Lo Cut/Lo Shelf/Parametric 1/Parametric 2/Hi Shelf.

You activate the separate bands by clicking the button at the top of each strip (none

of the bands are activated by default).

Lo Cut

The Lo Cut switch will simply cut frequencies below 30 Hz (by 12 dB/Octave). This is

useful for removing low frequency “rumble”.

✪ When you are using the MClass Equalizer with a compressor or Maxi-

mizer, activating the Lo Cut switch prevents subsonic sound from “top-

ping” the compressor/limiter, and allows them to operate as efficiently

as possible.
