Input Conditioner
Applicability
This description applies to the Mono, Stereo, Surround, and Immersive versions of the Input Conditioner module.
Overview
Input Conditioner is a module for basic preparation of an input signal before further processing. It provides level, mute, polarity, filter, mono, delay, and grouping controls.
Processing Principle
The module adjusts the incoming signal before it enters the main processing chain. It can apply per-channel and master gain, channel mute and polarity handling, high-pass and low-pass filtering, and delay. Coarse and fine delay add up to a total delay value.
Parameters
Level and Channel Control
|
Parameter - Level and Channel Control |
Description |
|
Enable |
Enables or disables the Input Conditioner stage. |
|
Grouping |
Controls how channels are linked or grouped. |
|
Master Gain |
Adjusts the overall gain of the conditioned input signal for all channels. It can be used as a master fader, for example in combination with an automation system or a physical fader via a control protocol. |
|
Gain |
Adjusts the gain of an individual channel (subject to linking settings). |
|
Mute |
Mutes an individual channel (subject to linking settings). |
|
Mono |
Controls mono handling for the input path. |
|
Polarity |
Inverts or restores the polarity of an input channel. |
Filtering and Delay
|
Parameter - Filtering and Delay |
Description |
|
HPF |
Controls the frequency of a high-pass filter. |
|
LPF |
Controls the frequency of a low-pass filter. |
|
Delay Coarse |
Sets the coarse input delay amount in milliseconds. |
|
Delay Fine |
Sets the fine input delay amount in samples. |
