An enhancement plugin for general purpose vocal processing consisting of High Pass filtering, EQ, and Compressor controls.
Side by side EQ and Dynamics graphs are presented above the controls. An output audio meter lets you monitor the final signal being produced by this plugin.
Vocal Channel has the following controls:
— High Pass: Enabled by a toggle, off by default. Has a single frequency knob that sets the threshold below which frequencies are attenuated to reduce boominess or rumble.
— EQ: A three-band EQ for fine tuning the various frequencies of speech, enabled by a toggle, including Low, Mid, and High Mode, Frequency, and Gain controls
— Low/Mid/Hi Mode: Lets you choose from different filtering options to use for isolating a range of frequencies to adjust. Different bands present different options.
— Low/Mid/Hi Freq (Hz): Lets you choose the center frequency to adjust.
— Low/Mid/Hi Gain (dB): Lets you boost or attenuate the selected frequencies.

— Compressor:
— Threshold (dB): Sets the signal level below which compression occurs. Defaults to -25dB. The range is from -40 to 0dB.
— Reaction: Adjusts how quickly compression is applied when a signal exceeds the threshold. The default is 0.10.
— Ratio: Adjusts the compression ratio. This sets the gain reduction ratio (input to output) applied to signals which rise above the threshold level. The default is 1.5:1. The range is 1.1 to 7.0.
— Gain (dB): Lets you adjust the output gain to compensate for signal lost during compression, if necessary.
