Use this feature to apply an auto duck effect to some tracks. MixPad detects the volume of control track and applies volume reduction to other tracks. It is helpful if you want to lower the music background track when a vocal track is the main focus and then raise the music background when the vocal track is silent. Suppose Track 1 is selected as a control track and the auto duck effect is applied to Track 2, Mixpad will detect the volume level of Track 1 and once that volume crosses over the threshold configured a dB reduction, a Fade-In and Fade-out will be applied to Track 2 automatically. When Track 1‘s volume is lower than the threshold, Track 2 will return to its original volume level.
- Threshold (dB) is the level of the control track at which reduction will be applied on the track being ducked.
- Reduction (dB) is the amount of reduction when ducking is fully applied to the track being ducked.
- Fade in length (ms) is the length in ms over which the ducking is applied or its fade-in time.
- Fade out length (ms) is the length in ms over which the ducking is released or its fade-out time.
