Even using a notch filter in combination with a dynamic multi-band effect would have much impact to the "sparkle". I suspect that only a notch filter is able to keep the "sparkle" and to damp the hiss a little bit. Assumed the filter could be used for individual tracks instead of the sum, its to consider to use dynamic effects too. However, you can't fake Dolby and Co. for recordings that were already done without Dolby or Co., you only can provide a smarter kind of noise gate e.g. a gate that behaves different at different frequencies. Using an expander and after that a compressor with a different ratio and/or threshold seems to be not as smart as using a multi-band dynamic effect just to gate or compress a signal depending on the frequency. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
