FLUX Pure DExpander V3

Intensifying The Sound Energy
Pure DExpander is carefully designed to retain and restore the organic character of the material, by magnifying the space information and enhance the low levels through amplification of the signal below the threshold, instead of reducing all audio under a certain threshold. This results in a solid and louder signal without creating a harsh processed sound.

Open up the sound and increase the dynamic impression
Two parameters are provided that are kind of unique to dynamics processing; Dynamics Ratio and Level Independent Detection (L.I.D), using the dynamic range content of the signal and not just the signal levels as standard processors do.

Features

• Up to 8 channels Input/Output
• Generous -/ 48 dB input/output gain range
• Input/Output gain controls for adjusting the levels before and after processing
• Dry/wet control offering true parallel dynamics processing and for blending some of the original “peak” into the processed signal
• Phase invert of the processed signal
• External side chain support for AAX (Native & DSP) and AU ; in mono and stereo format
• Discrete peak limiter at the very last stage of the processing chain rounding off the peaks in a smooth and musically fashion
• Three release modes are presented; manual, auto, and advanced (with minimum and maximum release values fully adjustable)
• Auto delay function allowing for zero attack times by introducing a delay line in the processed signal
• M/S Width for controlling the stereo width of the processed signal
• Link Channel, provides linked/unlinked processing (in M/S mode)
• True bypass control routing the incoming signal direct to the output for a smooth transition between clean and processed signal
• Side chain section featuring a three-band equalizer to generate frequency sensitive processing
• External side-chain available in AU (Mac OS X) and AAX Native & DSP (Mac OS X & Windows) only
• Input/Output gain controls for adjusting the levels before and after processing.

Full control over the processing
In addition to the common controls on a dynamics processor; ratio, attack, release, Alchemist offers control over the fundamental characteristics of the dynamics processing on each band, all in order to provide full control over the processing even in the most demanding situations.

Individual Multichannel Processing
Up to eight channels of simultaneous processing for multichannel surround configuration is provided. The processing can be disengaged on any of the channels leaving the material unprocessed, bypassing the original sound.
When operating on a multi-channel bus all, up to eight in total, channels are processed by default, though the processing can be disengaged for any number of channels leaving the material unprocessed and bypassing the original sound.
By doing this in combination with serial instances the material on any number of channels can be processed with individual settings.

Dual Preset Slots and Parameter Morphing
The built in preset manager and the preset morphing slider, provides instant and intuitive control of all parameters and controls. In a second, with a simple one-click operation, everything is copied from one of the two preset slots to the other, even during playback.
The two Preset/Parameter slots, A and B, can be loaded with two full set of parameters at the same time, and except for only A/B comparing two sets of parameters, the morphing slider will allow to mix them, and to record the morph with the host automation.
