VOLT PROCESSING
HD Pro presets
Some HD presets are adaptations of FM presets. If there’s an FM sound you like, try its matching
HD as a starting point for your HD, DAB, streaming, or syndicated production.
AudioChameleonHD
A preset designed to mimic the warm tones of its analog older sibling,
Cornelius’ Audio Chameleon audio processor.
BackEMF_HD
Intended for formats that feature a fair amount of CHR crossover music.
CovertOps_HD
Gives you that stealthy edge to compete, correcting poor spectral balance
and hunting down low input levels. Can make a big splash, but also knows
when to lay low and stay off the radar.
KILOWATT_HD
MEGAWATT_HD
InYoFaceTalk_HD
InYourEarTalk_HD
TalkLikeNPR_HD
TalkToMe_HD
For syndicated or streaming production of talk-based programming.
VOLT factory preset lists usually grow as successive software updates are released. There are no
presets available for VOLT: SG’s composite generator, since that DSP|Core doesn’t have native audio
processing, and its choices depend on local market and regulations as well as your station’s goals.
Volt Processing Block Diagrams
A lot of VOLT’s processing power depends on how its algorithms are specialized for each differ-
ent DSP|Core function, and how signals are routed from one algorithm to the next.
The diagrams on the next few pages explain the internal mapping of each individual DSP|Core
module for FM, AM and HD-Pro. When you understand VOLT’s signal flow, you’ll find it easier
to intuit what each controls does. The SG DSP|Core can be viewed as a subset of FM, minus the
processing blocks
