When they are set longer than frequencies in the waveform, volume envelope compression is achieved. NOTE: When the time variables (ATT, REL & SUSTAIN) are set to values shorter than frequencies of the waveform, the Compression Envelope behaves as a Waveshaper. This is also an example of a ' Soft Knee' curve to a maximum output level of +3 dB. In the example (above) the point at which the compression curve deviates from the 1:1 input/output line (45 degree line), is the point where compression starts (in this case approximately -3 dB). Input levels are represented by the horizontal axis and output levels by the vertical axis. There are 4 independent envelopes, three are assigned to frequency bands - Low, Mid, and High, and one to a Master envelope on the final output of the plugin. More flexibly, the compression threshold and curve are set by a user-definable envelope
If you are familiar with regular compressors you will notice that Maximus does not have a threshold level control. It is important to note that the compression envelope interactsĬlosely with the PRE & POST GAIN, ATT & REL controls. There are 4 independent compression envelopes in Maximus, one for each of the three user-definable frequency bands and one for the Master band. The controls for Maximus are explained in detail below. The bands are then recombined and sent to the MasterĬompressor. Eachįrequency band can be treated independently with either saturation, compression, limiting or band level (EQ). Maximus takes the input signal, passes it through a variable high-pass filter and then splits the signal into three user-defined frequency bands.
