Mix Tap [ADV]

Overview

The Mix Tap is a utility plug-in that connects you to all the inter-plugin communication compatible features in both Neutron 2 and Ozone 8. Use it as a “masker” in the award-winning Masking Meter, control tracks that do not need the power of Neutron 2 using the Visual Mixer, and tap into any track’s audio using the Tonal Balance Control. With Time Delay, Channel Ops, HPF EQ, Polarity Invert, Stereo Width, Panning, and Gain Adjustment, the Mix Tap is the perfect lightweight addition to Neutron 2.

Controls

Plug-in name display

Bypass

Bypasses Mix Tap processing.

Gain

Adjusts the output gain of the Mix Tap.

Width

Pan

Pans the output signal to the left or right channel. Only functional in stereo instances of Mix Tap.

Sum to Mono

When enabled, sums the left and right channels to a mono output signal.

Invert Phase

When enabled, inverts the polarity of the signal.

Swap Channels

When enabled, swaps left and right channels.

Time Delay

Click on the Time Delay button to access left and right channel delay controls. Left and right channel delay amounts (in milliseconds) can be linked or adjusted independently.

High Pass Filter

When enabled, you can choose the slope of the high-pass filter from the dropdown menu. The center frequency of the high-pass filter is set by adjusting the Freq slider to the right of the slope selection menu.
