Solo

To listen to any channel solo press its Solo switch. Soloing any other channel deactivates any previous channel Solo.

You can also deactivate by clicking the same Solo switch again when it is active. Several Solo knobs cannot be linked.

One Solo knob only can be activated at the same time.

Fader Link

“Fader Link” on will link the Gain boost fader and the Threshold fader to “drive that channel into the limiter” harder

or softer without altering the overall volume of that channel. The Gain Boost and Threshold sliders will

automatically be moved contrarily when Fader link is ON (blue LED indicates ON). Gain boost “up” results in the

Threshold being pulled down automa- tically and vice versa!

Temporary Linking: you can link Gain Boost & Threshold without engaging Fader Link by just clicking between the 2

arrows in the channel metering section.

(1-click Fader Link for temporary linking)

Sidechain Active

When a channel’s Sidechain switch is lit (by clicking on the switch), the sidechain signal becomes the “trigger” for the

channel’s limiter and the internal audio signal is not used for the sidechain. See the next section to select the

sidechain signal.

Sidechain Mix

Click on the two labels / buttons that are located directly below the Sidechain Mix slider in turn to select two signal

sources for bx_XL’s sidechain signal.

The 5 available choices are:

• Mid Lo • Mid Hi • Mid (Mid Hi & Mid Lo combined) • Side • External [Sidechain provided by many hosts]

After you’ve chosen your two sidechain signals, blend them together in any proportion by sliding the Sidechain Mix

slider to the left or right. This blended sidechain signal serves as the “triggering” signal for the limiter for any or all

of the 3 audio channels (Mid Lo, Mid Hi or Side) which have their Sidechain switch activated.

In the example (lef picture) you would be blending a the MID and SIDE signals. This would give you a combination of

(let ́s say) all of your stereo guitar or keyboard sounds from your mix) with a bit of bass drum and snare peaks

added. If you used this signal to trigger your S channel the S channel limiter would react on the peaks of the bass

drum and snare to make the stereo elements of your mix (keys, piano, etc.) “groove” with the beats of your track.
