Block Reference

Multichannel Shelf Filter

Functionality

In all but one respect, the functionality of the Shelf: Multichannel block is identical to that of a standard Halogen Shelf filter block. The only difference is that you can add up to 80 input and output pairs. All channels are processed identically based on a common set of parameters.

The block is used in applications where a number of channels require the same filtering. An Example is when an AEC reference and room require the same processing.

See: Shelf Filter

See: Introduction to Conferencing for an example application.
