Notes for myself 0:20 Generates sub frequencies, for sources that lack subs - low freqs. 0:46 Using a test tone, at 1000 Hz (mids and up). SubSynth is a sub-generator that needs lower freqs to start creating harmonics. 1:58 Lower the pitch and it starts picking the tone up
I was a little confused by your explanation of the "Squeeze" knob, so I read the manual. As far as I can tell, it apllies compression (in the usual sense of dynamic range reduction) to a part of the signal (the band of the wet signal passing the cut filters). The precise compression parameters are not mentioned. Unless I'm mistaken above, a static sine wave is not exactly ideal to demonstrate the "Squeeze" function, as it has no dynamic range. The effect of compression after gain compensation should vary between no effect at all and distortion, depending on the compression parameters. I would venture to guess that "Squeeze" controls the threshhold while "Drive" affects some combination of ratio, attack, and release times. I think that this could explain what you're seeing in the video around 11:00. However, I don't think that the visible "compression" effect on the frequency distribution in the analyzer window should be considered the primary function of "Squeeze", as you seem to suggest. It's probably just increasing distortion/saturation as a side effect of (ordinary) compression with extreme parameters.
Your way of explaining is simply great. The visual representation with the frequency range of the test tone and plugin doctor really helps you understand what is happening in the background. The hardware that Brainworx has recreated here is the subharmonic synthesizer "dbx 120XP". The digital version has a few more functions than the analog version. Production of dbx has since been discontinued, but there is a kind of successor model in the api 500 format called "dbx 510".
Thanks for this video, I have had this plugin for years but never used it correctly so I just just gave up. I now understand the plugin. The results are actually good but BX need to redesign it, the order of the sections make no sense.
dud pls the next time mute the master output or something, its too much annoying hear your explaining and listen that constante freq x_X thansk for the step by step into this guide ! i need it
Yeh the tone frequency was damaging my ears. He should have waited till he was ready to demonstrate the plugin but with something else a little more pleasing to the ear. I quit the video as it was driving me insane.

Thank you!! I am so looking forward to more and more of this tutorial series☆

I’m liking this review series! Love the addition of the plugin doctor:)

i really love what you are doing. really useful
Thanks, More is coming about P. Alliace. Had to stop to do other things but I am almost done and will start filming more :)
love this type of toutorials. keep the amazing work brother
Great tutorials brother.
very useful tutorial. Thanks for that.
Great series. Love your channel. May I ask what your accent is. I like it.🙂😉
