Let us look at them one by one.
The first is AudioTrack (audio track), which is for the ordinary audio tracks we usually see. It combines three effects of 4-band EQ equalization, compression, and noise gate. If you have used T-racks software, you will find that its functions are very similar to AudioTrack. It’s just that the interface of T-racks is much more beautiful.
The following picture is the interface of AudioTrack:

After using it, Your entire mix will now stand on a solid foundation.
After you are familiar with the first two effect plug-ins, you won’t be confused when you look at them again.
In terms of equalization, you can refer to the Ultrafunk 2 EQ effector for specific operations and parameter settings.
In terms of compression, you can refer to Ultrafunk 2’s compression effector.
Among the several parameters of Gate (noise gate), only Floor (base) is unfamiliar to us. What to do if you are not familiar with it? You will know after trying it.
Tips:
Rel is the abbreviation of Release.
Put the mouse on the button, and the mouse will change into a two-way arrow. Drag in this direction to directly adjust the corresponding value of the button.
If you think a certain step is wrong, you can click the UNDO button on the upper left to cancel this step.
If you increase the Output setting too high, the No Clip on the right (no clipping) will become Out Clip (overflow, clipping), and it will show how much has been exceeded below. . If you process the settings at this time into a waveform, you will see the amplified level signal and the "thorns" being cut off.
You can select a preset scheme in Setup A, click Setup A and then load another scheme in Setup B that is displayed, and then compare the two schemes. Clicking A-gt;Ba or B-gt;A again will unify the two options.

Click Load to open the preset effect plan.
In addition to being able to load it from a file, the existing solutions are:
Reset all audio tracks, classical compression/EQ equalization, and sound transcendence (mainly referring to the range of the human voice) Frequency expansion), classical, heavy rock, 44.1 multimedia compression, multimedia high-pass filter, existential vocals (?).
In addition to these, there are two other submenus: RealAudio Setups (real-time audio settings) and Shockwave Setups (shockwave settings). There are several options under each submenu. Perhaps it is difficult to name them. The sound effects of some settings are indeed quite special. If you are interested, try it yourself. Maybe there will be unexpected surprises.

The picture above is C1 Compressor (C1 compressor)
The left is compression/expansion Meter.
The buttons in the middle are:
Low Ref, low reflection, click for peak reflection;
Makeup, level compensation;
Threshold, threshold;
Ratio, ratio;
Attack, attack;
Release, release;
/images /upload/2005/09/22/154126.gif
The preset effect schemes are:
Reset all parameters, classical compression, language compression, upward expander, upward Compressor.
/images/upload/2005/09/22/154216.gif
The picture above is the C1 Gate (noise gate), except that the functions of some buttons are different from those of the C1 compressor. The basic interfaces are very similar.
There are no thresholds or ratios here, but instead Floor, GateOpen, and GateClose.
If you don’t understand something, you still have to study hard.
/images/upload/2005/09/22/154259.gif
The preset effect schemes include:
Reset all, classical noise gate , down expansion, up compression, and cutoff threshold w/100ms duration.

The picture on the left is the C1 effector.
In fact, no further introduction is needed. C1 just integrates the functions of several previous effectors such as compressor/expander, noise gate/expander, and side-chain filter. When we set the compression ratio to a negative value, the compressor becomes an expander. This expander can enhance the rhythm section. When the compression ratio is set to 0.5:1, the snare drum sound in the rhythm section is highlighted.
C1 provides a unique "Key Mode" that can use one signal in the stereo signal as a reference to trigger or mute another signal. This function makes it easy to create the kind of "stuttering" rhythm that is very popular in electronic music.
Sidechain filter: Either or both the compressor and noise gate can be used with the sidechain filter. In this way, C1 can only respond to signals in specific frequency bands to complete a special usage, such as hiss elimination, bass compression and enhancement, etc.
The slight difference is that there is an EQ mode below: Widebnd (wide gear); Sidechain (edge ??circuit); Split (separate). After you select it, the two modes will be represented by red and blue colors. You can adjust the frequency lines in the LED below separately, or you can use the two in association.

This is a preset effect plan. The contents include:
Reset, language compression/downward expansion, classical esser noise gate, better esser noise gate, sound transcendence, high frequency noise attenuation, low frequency enhancement, multimedia speech, enhanced low frequency Fidelity system, keyed noise gate, compression + up presence, dual compression.

The picture above is the fifth effector C1-comp of the WAVEs effector plug-in.
It is similar to the previous effector C1, so it will not be introduced again.
The following is its preset effect scheme:
/images/upload/2005/09/22/154515.gif
It turns out to be the same as the menu of C1 .
I don’t know why Waves would do this thankless thing.

What we see now is Waves’ C4 effector, which is mainly used for EQ equalization. It is different from the previous ones. The interfaces of each effector are somewhat different.
Firstly, the Range parameter is introduced. When it is a positive value, it can enhance the level of this frequency band. When it is a negative value, it is similar to compression processing; secondly, there is an additional "S" button, which can be used to It is used to monitor the effect of a certain frequency band separately; and there are several more master control parameters on the lower right, allowing you to not only adjust the specific parameters of a certain frequency band, but also have three options: release mode, behavior mode, and inflection point.

The picture on the left is the preset effect scheme of C4.
Contents include:
Reset, basic multi-speed, hard basic (multi-speed), deep, low-level boost, upward compression +3dB, upward compression +5dB, Multi-optical master control, multi-electric master control, 2-level high-frequency noise attenuation, rumble and hiss attenuation, 4-level noise attenuation, decompressor, low-frequency compression/de-essing, low-frequency compression/high-frequency limiting, pop musician Voice, voice, voice beyond, too much pressure.

This is the DeEsser (hiss removal) effect, which can be used to remove certain sibilant sounds, etc. If you've ever been tortured by a shrill or fragile drum with lots of cymbals, give it a try.
The specific parameters are nothing special, there are only two parameters: threshold and side chain trigger frequency.

The following are its preset effect plans: They are:
Reset, All mixed, the Ess sound of the male voice, the Shh sound of the male voice, the Ess sound of the female voice, and the Shh sound of the female voice.

This is the Doppler effector that we have already touched before. For related information, see Ultrafunk 2’s Surround effector.
It is mainly used for the production of certain special effects, such as the changes in sound produced when cars, trains, and airplanes pass by.
This is a preset effect plan.
