About this item
Taking the algorithms of the award-winning SA-2 Dialog Processor to another level, the SA-3 Spectral Processor from McDSP is a powerful 1000 band spectrum analyzer and EQ plug-in ideal for cleaning up dialog and vocals. Using a variety of unique techniques like Focus, Range, and Density control, you can eliminate persistent peaks at nearly any audio frequency.
Detect and Monitor
Increasing the Detect value will allow the SA-3 algorithm to intelligently apply its 1000+ bands to identify and suppress unwanted signals. Pressing the Monitor button allows the user to listen to the removed signal, and observe it in the main LCD window.
Mid/Side
The stereo version of the SA-3 can be configured for mid/side processing. This can be useful for removing spikes and/or resonant frequencies from the mid and side channels. The main LCD window can display the left (mid) or right (side) total Bias Curve plot.
Bias
The SA-3 spectral processing can be emphasized (or de-emphasized) with the Bias Curve. The total Bias Curve response can be adjusted with the Scale and Shift controls. Editable text readouts appear whenever a Bias Curve band (HPF, B1, B2, B3, B4) is selected in the main LCD window, showing Bias Curve Type, Frequency, Gain, Q, and Pan values for the selected band.
