Processing

Processing A–D

There are four processing blocks in the XAP 400, each with filters, compressors, and delay to provide pinpoint audio configurations. To open the Processing configuration window, click the Processing A–D button on the Flow Screen. The To and From Processing buttons on the Matrix Screen will also open this window.

Figure 3.53. Processing window

To select a processing block, click a blank area in the Process pane. If you click on the Process label, a secondary window will open allowing you to rename the processing block. The background color for the selected processor will be light gray. The configurable properties of these processors are defined in this section.

Mute

Mute mutes the processor. The light on the button illuminates red when Mute is activated. Default is off (unmuted).

Cmprs (compressor)

Cmprs opens the Compressor Setup window (see Figure 3.54). With the compressor you can change the gain transfer characteristics of the signal path and control the dynamics of a signal.

When the signal exceeds the threshold level, gain reduction occurs at the rate specified by the reduction ratio. The attack time determines how aggressively the compressor reacts to increases in level. The release time controls how aggressively the compressor reacts to reductions in level. Select the Enable Compressor check box to activate the compressor.

	ClearOne		recommends
✍ using		the	XAP	to mute
	mics instead of using the
mute	provided		by	some
microphones.		External		muting

devices limit the effectiveness of Gentner D.E.C. To use the mute button on a microphone, contact ClearOne Technical Services.
