Envelope, Time and Detection Settings
Experience complete command over Attack, Hold, and Release settings with our extended envelope features, offering Manual, Auto, and Advanced release modes. Achieve immediate dynamics processing with zero attack time by integrating a delay that mirrors the attack time into the signal path.
Explore eight distinct detection modes that interact with your time and envelope settings and the integration times for RMS detection. This includes our unique "Feed Backward" modes, inspired by classic hardware designs, delivering a robust and natural sound. Utilize the Dynamic Factor feature to either amplify or lessen the real-time dynamics information extracted from your audio. Control the pace of changes to the extracted dynamics information with our innovative Dynamic Velocity feature within the FLUX pure compressor plug-in.
Control over stereo width
Inside Pure Compressor FLUX has introduced a built-in MS encoder/decoder to split your stereo signal into the mono and stereo pieces, allowing you greater control over the stereo compression. The MS width control sets the stereo width of the original where -6dB decreases the width and +6dB increases. Available when operating only in a two-channel capacity, this is ideal for processing entire mixes and masters to enhance or control the stereo spread of transients in your mix.
Individual Multichannel Processing
Experience the power of FLUX Pure Compressor's multichannel capabilities. With up to sixteen channels available for simultaneous processing, you can fully customize your surround configuration. Plus, you have the flexibility to disengage processing on any channel, letting the original sound bypass unaltered.
When working on a multi-channel bus, all channels - up to a total of sixteen - are processed by default. However, you have complete control and can choose to disengage processing for any number of channels. This allows the original sound to bypass, leaving the material unprocessed.
And there's more - you can use this feature in conjunction with serial instances. This means you can process the material on any number of channels with individual settings. It's all about giving you maximum control over your sound.
Increase dynamic perception without altering the level
Experience a new level of sound enhancement and dynamic impression with FLUX Pure Compressor's unique features: Dynamics Ratio and Level Independent Detection (L.I.D). Unlike standard processors that simply use signal levels, these innovative features utilize the dynamic range content of the signal to open up your sound.
Dynamics Ratio is a game-changer in dynamics processing. It controls the auto-ratio determined by the signal dynamics and the manual ratio setting. This feature breathes new life into your sound, amplifying the dynamic impression whilst maintaining some crest. It accomplishes this by adjusting the ratio of every dynamic processing section in real-time, based on both the current ratio settings and the signal content, focusing mainly on the dynamic range.
Level Independent Detection (L.I.D) offers a fresh approach to audio processing. It controls the amount of auto-threshold determined by the signal dynamics and the manual threshold value. The result? Your audio signal is processed independently of its sound level, focusing instead on the signal's dynamic range.
For even more control, engage the Maximum mode on the L.I.D control. This allows for processing that takes into account the maximum values of both the standard and the L.I.D detection schemes. With FLUX Pure Compressor, you're in the driver's seat of your sound.
Preset and parameter handling
In the FLUX Pure Compressor plug-in, Preset and Parameter Handling is designed to optimize workflow efficiency. The plug-in features two Preset/Parameter slots, A and B, which can simultaneously hold two complete sets of parameters. Users can save individual presets as well as a "Global Preset" that encompasses both A and B settings and the position of the "Morphing Slider."
The Morphing Slider enables seamless blending between the parameter settings of slots A and B, offering creative and practical real-time adjustments. By activating the Automation control button, the Morphing Slider becomes accessible for host automation, further enhancing user control and flexibility.
