POWAIR Explained

Join production guru Eli Krantzberg for a thorough look at this new smart compressor from Sound Radix. With several proprietary features not found on any other compressors, POWAIR offers exciting new opportunities for dynamic control, and Eli covers each and every parameter in detail, so you'll be ready to start using it in earnest by the end of the course. These POWAIR videos are designed for new POWAIR users.

Videos

• Metering & Gain Staging (04:44) - Take a first look at the POWAIR interface, learn about the input and output peak and K-weighted metering, see how to adjust the speed of the auto lever section?s automatic gain riding section, and more.

• Auto Leveler (05:39) - Explore how the auto leveler parameters are set in order to provide smooth transparent level riding to match a user defined LKFS target level.

• Compressor Section & Punch (05:27) - Explore the compressor controls and hear how the Punch parameter is used to allow transients to be passed while still providing control over their level.

• Adaptive Compression & Stereo Linking (06:53) - Explore this unique feature that's used to maintain a consistent compressed sound across louder and quieter parts while preserving the natural dynamics of the audio.

• Internal & External Sidechain Detection (05:58) - Discover how to use the audio signal from another track to trigger the compressor. Also see how to set up the built-in filter to either include or exclude specific frequencies from the detection circuit.

• Mid/Side Processing, Clipping & Saturation (04:03) - Hear how unlinking the Mid and Side channels can enhance the stereo width and see how to drive the input and makeup gain to take advantage of the internal clipping and saturation functions.
