Balance

DynamicsbalanceModerate CPU

Matches Sig level to a Comp signal (RMS level follower).

What it does

Forces one signal to the level of another.

Wraps daisysp::Balance. Tracks the RMS of the Comparator input and scales the Signal input to match it. Rate is the follower's internal cutoff in Hz.

Parameters

  • Rate (Hz)

    cutoff
    Default 10Range 1 … 100

    How quickly the level follower reacts, as the half-power point of its internal smoothing filter in Hz. Low values average over a long window, so the output level drifts slowly and musically; high values chase the Comparator closely enough to follow individual notes, which tracks tightly but can sound like it is breathing. This is a smoothing time, not a loudness control.

Continuously scales Signal so its level tracks the Comparator. Use it as a level follower / cheap AGC, or to keep an effected signal at the loudness of the dry one. Rate sets how fast it tracks (lower = smoother).
