Rotary Controls

Level Control

The Level control sets the attenuation of the in-

put signal. For normal operation set the Level

control on Max (no attenuation).

The Aural Exciter TDM plug-in has an internal

gain structure that boosts +6 dB of the output

from the high-pass filter into the side-chain.

The Drive switch further boosts the signal level

fed into the harmonics generator. When Drive is

set to Normal, you obtain a boost of +6 dB; in

the High position you can get an additional

6 dB of gain, for a total maximum boost of

+18 dB. You can also generate a boost in the

high-pass filter section by setting Peaking to

Max. If the Drive signal runs into clipping, use

the Level control to adjust the Drive level.

If you run into headroom problems when ad-

justing the Mix control, adjust the Level control

to generate the necessary headroom.
