SIDECHAIN OPERATION

The TRIPLE•C can be set up to use an external source as Sidechain Input to either control or contribute to the compression of the source material. The Sidechain modes allows the TRIPLE•C to react on either:

•The Sidechain Input only. (ON - mode)

•A mix between the original Input and the Input present on the Sidechain. (ADD - mode)

To select the Sidechain mode:

•Press MENU.

•Select the “Edit menu” using the VALUE SET wheel and press ENTER.

•Use the PARAMETER wheel to select “Ext Side” and the VALUE SET wheel to select Sidechain mode.

Ext. Sidechain set to “ON”

Over-writes the original source and takes full control of the responds of the Compressor. This can be used in various applications e.g. for inputting a spectrally shaped version of the original source, and thereby force the Compressor to respond to a certain frequency area.

Ext. Sidechain set to “ADD”

Mixes the signal present on the external Sidechain In with the original source material present on the Main Input.

Stereo Link

Stereo Setup

It is possible to use two TRIPLE•C Single Channel units as one stereo compressor where all parameters are linked.

To acheive this:

•Connect Direct Out of the “Master” TRIPLE•C to the Sidechain In of the “Slave” TRIPLE•C and vice versa (see illustration below).

•Connect MIDI Out from the “Master” to MIDI In on the “Slave”.

•Go to the I/O menu on both units and select Link “On”. The “Master” TRIPLE•C is now controlling all parameters of the “Slave” TRIPLE•C. With this setup the two units will operate as one stereo Compressor. Both units/channels will respond and compress the source material according to the signal present on both Input channels.

Dual Mono Setup

To use two TRIPLE•C units in a dual-mono setup, no Sidechain connections should be made - only MIDI Out from the “Master” unit to MIDI In on the “Slave” unit. Select Link “On” in the I/O menu on both units and all parameters on the “Master” unit are now automatically copied to the “Slave” unit. The two units will respond only to their own Input.

External EQ

TRIPLE•C Stereo Channel

When using the TRIPLE•C Stereo Channel version as a Single Channel Compressor with Sidechain use:

•Left Input and left Output for source material processing.

•Right Input for Sidechain Input.

•Right Output for Direct Out.
