Frequently Asked Questions

The RMS detector averages the signal over time, resulting in a more gentle and less aggressive compression, better preserving transients while still taming dynamics.
While the sidechain filter offers a decent starting point, dedicated de-essing plugins may provide more precise frequency targeting for severe sibilance issues.
Warm mode subtly adds harmonic content, primarily in the lower-midrange frequencies, giving the signal a slightly richer and more vintage-like character—it's not a dramatic effect, but adds pleasing warmth.
