7. l However vocal sibilance can be a problem and may require de ssing or a reduction of the input signal level Something like a tambourine that has a level of 3 dbfs can also end up with large amounts of HF distortion if one is not careful Load the Tambourine pre set to look at the control settings Harmonic 17 Dynamic 16 Color Silver If the level is low it is possible to turn up the Harmonic control but if the signal it hot turning up the control will quickly result in distortion due to the HF compression Another solution for HF distor tion is to back off the level of the HARMONIC control if it is not possible to change other factors The Harmonic control changes the level of the non time modulated harmonic effects and the HF compression As the Color control setting increases from Silver to Deep the level for HF compression reduces in amplitude and the amount of the low midrange color increases The LF cutoff of the midrange color also reduces in frequency as the Color control setting increases from Silver to Deep The how much of these effects are determined by the Harmonic control The Dynamic control does two main things The first is it time or phase modulatates the harmonic content There is a maximum amount of time modulation so turning the control to max does not always result in more of this effect is it more a matter of finding an optimum level The time modulation does what the tracing and tracking distortions in vinyl record pl
