Working with the DYNAMIC1 algorithm has proven to be a very powerful tool when it
comes to CD mastering and staying in the digital domain. Not only have the CD mastering
plants had a very useful tool to their daily work, but also the recording studios have had great
use of the DYNAMIC1 algorithm in order to deliver an even more optimized master to CD
mastering plants - leaving their job a lot easier and quicker. However, with the use of the
DYNAMIC1 algorithm some wishes for specific functions arose, such as equalization.
Normally, one had to do this by connecting an external device - often having to convert back
into the analog domain.
•
Digital Equalizer with parametric, notch, soft shelving and cut EQ-types.
•
Quantization and selectable Dithering types to 8, 12, 16, 18, 20, 22 and 24 bit levels.
•
High resolution level and correlation meters.
•
Stereo adjust facilities with variable mono, balance, channel & phase swaps.
•
Digital Fading with contoured frequency corrections at lower levels.
These functions and others are implemented in this TOOLBOX algorithm, which is a
separate algorithm that will run standalone on a DSP engine or run concurrently with e.g. the
DYNAMIC1 algorithm when two DSP engines are available.
One major difference from the other M5000 algorithms is that it provides an
internal
digital
insert point to which any other DSP-module can be routed. This makes it possible to run e.g.
the DYNAMIC1 algorithm in conjunction with the TOOLBOX in a complete dynamics
mastering system.
DIGITAL EQUALIZER:
The digital EQ features a four-band parametric EQ with high- and low-pass filters switchable
to notch, shelving and cut filters. The needle sharp notch filter has a range down to 0.02
octave, the shelving filters has a variable slope ranging from gentle 3 dB/oct over 6 and 9 to
