Topic: How to enable dynamics (compressor, expander)?

I've read and seen screenshots of a "D" button on each channel, below the wrench and EQ. I'm interested to try the dynamics effects TotalMix supports. However, I don't see this button in my TotalMix.

Do I have to do something to enable it? The manual for my Babyface Pro FS doesn't say anything about it, and searches have turned up empty.

Re: How to enable dynamics (compressor, expander)?

Hello!

The BF Pro FS doesn't have a Dynamics section! Only EQ, Reverb and Echo. That's why you can't see it on your TMFX!

The reason for that is, that if RME had implemented Dynamics, the DSP would have required more power and then they couldn't  have kept the BF, Usb powered!

I learned the reason today in this very informative webinar from RME: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARaW4ihOWgM
