Installation
1. copy the plugin file to the vstplugins folder of your host application.
2. restart the host application.
Done at all!
Overview
With T-SLEDGE, you can get even better results than any other
multi-band compressor for mastering or some else.
It is equipped with peak limiter, level maximizer and
4 compressors/expanders/limiters. And it is equipped with
2 kinds of dividing filter IIR/FIR. So, it also operates as a dynamics EQ.
(Needless to say, internal 64bit process & all samplerate support)
The core-compressor is just a mastering quality makes clear and
hi-quality sound for all dynamics process. Certainly T-SLEDGE has
many parameters and the operation of it is not easy,
but don't worry to use it, there are many useful presets
for many situations it will surely help your works!
Short reference
Threshold:
Controls the threshold of compressing/limiting.
The signal at a level that is larger than this value is compressed.
Ratio:
Controls the ratio of compressing/limiting.
It operates as an expander when this value is smaller than 1.0.
When this value is maximized, it operates as a limiter.
Attack:
Controls the attack time of compressing/limiting.
Release:
Controls the release time of compressing/limiting.
It makes the sound smooth, if you choose the large value.
Soft:
Sets the soft/hard mode of compressing/limiting process.
While the soft mode compression gradually compresses the threshold
When the hard mode compression reaches the threshold by the signal,
it immediately compresses. There a little differences using it,
but it makes compressing/limiting process smooth or vivid.
At the present stage, this function becomes effective only to
the compression processing.
ARC:
Sets the automatic release time control system.
(Sets all compressor and limiter release time ARC)
Automatically ARC calculates the release time.
If you want to create loudness sound, I recommend to turn it off.
IIR-FIR:
Sets the dividing filter type.
If you want to use for mastering, I recommend to use FIR.
FIR filter cause a little latency, but it's no more than 1ms.
Gain:
Controls the level of each output signal.
Input Gain:
Controls the level of input signal.
Knob:
Ctrl+Left-Click -> Fine adjustment of the value.
Shift+Left-Click -> Link adjustment of the value.
Ctrl+Shift+Left-Click -> Fine link adjustment of the value.
VU Meter:
Range 0dB <-> -40dB
