The installer places the plugins and presets into proper locations so that your DAW can easily find them. Installation is a quick and simple process involving downloading and using a standard installer on both platforms, Windows and Mac OS X. HOME/Documents/SoundeviceDigital/VoxDucker Installation and maintenance In your computer, presets are stored in the following paths:Ĭ:\Users\username\Documents\SoundeviceDigital\VoxDucker You can save and manage your own presets there as well. Access them using the right and left arrows or by clicking the preset field directly. Presets and right and left arrows - The plugin comes with a set of presets, which should do the trick for most cases or give you a good starting point when tweaking your sound. Undo Redo - Will revert back one step to help avoid the accidental change of parameter values. This is a great way for A/B check and select the best settings. Clicking any of these 2 buttons switches between these 2 settings. ToolbarĪ B buttons - The plugin remembers 2 sets of settings, A and B. Some parameters let you access more accurate numeric settings by double-clicking the knobs. Right-click any control (knob, button) to access help for the particular parameter. Open presets folder (to add, arrange or delete presets manually)Īccess Licence manager (to activate or deactivate the plugin or several plugins at the same time)ĭisable/Enable Intelligent sleep on silence function that disables the plugin when no sound is on input or output to save the CPU power. Right-click anywhere in the plugin background with the right mouse button, and you will get access to the following features.Īccess product web page, reach support and access online documentation. Out - Shows the overall output volume of the track Right-click Side - Shows the input volume of the Sidechain channel (typically voice-over track) Gr - shows the Gain Reduction amount applied on the music track It also smooths the dynamic response around the threshold with a soft knee. Smoothness - Controls the amount of smoothing of the detected signal by using an RMS window. This incurs latency, so it must be set to 0ms for live use. This is used when you want the ducking to start before the voice, making the beginning of the speech clear and audible. It allows the detector to be ahead of time, meaning it can predict the sidechain before it happens. Look-ahead - Controls the amount of offset for the detection. It is useful, for example, to stop background noises from triggering the ducking. If the sidechain signal is below this threshold, it will be ignored. If the sidechain signal exceeds this threshold, it will trigger the ducking. Threshold - Controls the level at which the ducking will start. Release - Controls how quickly the signal will return to normal after the sidechain signal drops below the threshold. It works like a ratio control on a compressor.Īttack - Controls how quickly the signal will start ducking when the sidechain signal exceeds the threshold. This mode has latency and is the most CPU-intensive.ĭepth - Controls the amount of ducking. Spectral is the most accurate, it preserves most of the backing as only the frequencies present in the sidechain are removed from the input. It preserves more of the backing as the bands with the least activity are ducked less. Multiband uses 6 bands tuned to respond well to voice. Broadband is classic ducking where the entire signal is ducked. Mode - Select between three ducking types. If several plugins on the backing tracks are used VoxDucker should be the last plugin in the chain. Place VoxDucker on your backing track and route the voice into the plugin's sidechain input (see your DAW docs for routing).
