1.1 Concepts and Terminology

Sensitivity Control/Sensitivity LED

The Sensitivity LED’s 3 colors indicate when appropriate levels are reached:

❖

Led Off (too low)

❖

Green (good)

❖

Yellow (optimal)

❖

Red (very hot)

Push the Sensitivity Control upwards until the LED lights up. We recommend adjusting

the Sensitivity Control as soon as you open the plug-in, using the section of your song

with the highest peaks for best results.

In most cases, the Sensitivity LED indicates that your levels hit the processor in a way

that will give you the intended output result. However, it’s important to keep in mind that

optimal results for your source material may be achieved even when the Sensitivity LED

does not display “optimal” levels (yellow). As always, trust your ears.

Color

Each fader on CLA Artist Signature Collection plug-ins controls a specific function, such

as compression or reverb. Each function has a color-coded selector which controls the

internal characteristics of that function, resulting in a different sound character or “Color.”

You can mix and match different colors across the different faders.

A Few Words from Chris

"CLA Effects does it all. Filtered vocal? Check. Telephone FX? Check. John Lennon "I

Am the Walrus" vocal distortion? Check and double check. Multiple delays with tape

phasing? You got it. Reverb, tape slap, and long echo all at once? Yes, yes, and yes.

One of my favorite features is the echo throw section: Hit the throw button and add long

delays to just the words you want, with one click! And to top it all off, all tempos are

matched to the session BPM, cutting out all the guesswork."

1.2

Components

WaveShell technology enables us to split Waves processors into smaller plug-ins, which

we call components. Having a choice of components for a particular processor gives

you the flexibility to choose the configuration best suited to your material.

The Waves CLA Effects has two components:

•

CLA Effects Mono-to-Stereo – Mono in to Stereo out component

•

CLA Effects Stereo – Stereo in to Stereo out component

Chapter 2 – Quickstart Guide

•

Insert the CLA Effects plug-in on an effects return track (aux bus), and turn off

the Direct switch. You can also insert the CLA Effects on the source track, in

which case you should turn the Direct switch on.

•

Adjust the Sensitivity control until you achieve proper levels, as indicated by the

Sensitivity LED and the input meter.

•

The current plug-in settings now represent Chris's default effect setup.

Tweak the following controls to fit your mix:

•

Use the EQ fader to control high frequency content.

•

Toggle EQ Color for different filter styles.

•

Use Distortion to add some 'bite'. Toggle through the Colors to find that which

works best for the song

•

Adjust Reverb, Short Delay, Long Delay, and Pitch effect levels. Toggle through

the Colors to find that which works best for the song

•

The Throw control makes it fun and easy to add a long delay to selected phrases

while writing automation. Use the Send Long Delay switch to control the delay

input. When set to Hold, the delay will be fed constantly. Using the Throw control,

you can feed the delay by holding the mouse down; when the mouse is released,

the send is muted.

Please note:

•

When Reverb, Short Delay, Long Delay and Pitch Colors are set to clear

(Bypass/Mute), and Direct is off, the plug-in will have no output.

•

EQ adjustment will take effect once the EQ fader is moved. At zero, cycling

through the EQ Colors will have no effect.

•

All other faders are active and set to Chris's default setup when at zero.

> If the Output meter goes into the red, use the Ouput fader to lower the Output level.
