We suggest using medium levels of around 2 to 3 dB / sec, and especially that you concentrate on the audio
sources connected to the processor, to obtain the most even sound possible.
12.2 THE VOICE OPTIMIZER
NOTE: The processor features a phase rotator input stage, also called ‘Voice Optimizer’ that is always kept
active.
It is a special all-pass filter designed to properly modify input signal waveform in order to avoid unpleasant effects
in the processing of ‘live speech’ material.
Typical speech waveforms (as those sourced by microphones) are mostly asymmetric, while typical ‘musical’
signals are symmetric.
As asymmetric clipped signals result in a more unpleasant ‘sound’ to the ear than the symmetric clipped ones, a
filter designed to convert asymmetric waverforms into symmetric waveforms is enabled by default, giving
significant improvements on speech processing and removing any distortion.
