Overview
The interface of FabFilter Pro-G is designed to be easy to use while providing all necessary information and controls. It
consists of the following elements:
Real-time level display and level metering
In the middle section of the plug-in, the real-time moving level display and the level meter show you at a glance
what's happening to your audio. They show the output level (light blue) on top of the input (dark blue), with a 60 dB
scale. See Metering
.
Dynamic controls
To the left of the level display are the controls that determine the range and amount of gating/expansion: Threshold,
Ratio and Range. See Dynamic
controls.
Time controls, style and knee
To the right of the level display are the controls that affect the reaction speed, hold time and look-ahead time of the
gate/expander algorithm, together with a style selection button and a custom knee setting. See Time controls, style
and knee.
Expert settings
Via the Expert button under the level display, you can enable or disable expert mode. When enabled, the interface
will resize itself to offer additional options for customizing the side-chain triggering signal and adjusting the wet and
dry signals separately. See Expert mode
.
MIDI Learn
MIDI Learn lets you easily associate any MIDI controller with any plug-in parameter. See MIDI Learn
.
Oversampling
The Oversampling setting sets the amount of internal oversampling, which reduces possible aliasing for fast attack or
release settings at the cost of additional CPU usage. See Oversampling
.
Input and output options
On the far right of the bottom bar, you can bypass the entire plug-in and adjust the initial input and final output
levels. See Input and output
options.
Full Screen mode, resizing and scaling
The Resize button at the far right of the bottom bar lets you change the interface size and scaling. In addition, click
the Full Screen button in the top-right corner of the interface to let Pro-G fill the entire screen. See Full Screen
mode, resizing and scaling.
Presets, undo, A/B, help
With the preset buttons, you can easily browse through the factory presets or save your own settings so you can re-
use them in other songs. The Undo, Redo, A/B and Copy buttons at the top of the plug-in interface enable you to
undo your changes and switch between different states of the plug-in. Finally, the Help menu provides access to help
and version information. See Loading presets
and Undo, redo, A/B switch.

Knobs
It is easy to control FabFilter Pro-G's parameters with the large round knobs. They will light up when you move the mouse
cursor around to indicate that you can adjust them. The moment you move the mouse cursor over a knob, a parameter
value display will pop up, which shows the name and the current value of the parameter.
All knobs support four ways of control:
1. Vertical mode
Click on the center area of a knob and drag up or down to rotate it. The knob reacts to the speed with which you
are dragging, so if you move the mouse slowly, you make precise adjustments.
2. Rotate mode
Grab the arrow of the knob and drag it around. By moving the mouse cursor further away from the knob while
dragging it, you can make precise adjustments.
3. Mouse wheel mode
Perhaps the easiest way to make adjustments is by using the mouse wheel when you hover over a knob. This
mode works for all the knobs and possible panning rings. (On Windows, you might need to click in the plug-in
interface first to make sure it is the active window.)
4. Text entry mode
Double-click a knob to enter an exact value using the keyboard.
Tips
To reset a knob to its default position, hold down the Ctrl key (Windows) or Command key (macOS) and click the
knob once. Note: In Pro Tools, Pro-G uses the default Pro Tools keyboard shortcut for reset: Alt+click.
To fine-tune a value when using vertical drag mode or the mouse wheel, hold down the Shift key while dragging or
moving the mouse wheel. Note: In Pro Tools, Pro-G uses the default Pro Tools keyboard shortcut for fine tune:
Ctrl+drag on Windows or Command+drag on macOS.
There are several handy shortcuts in text entry mode. With frequency values, you can type e.g. '1k' to set the
value to 1000 Hz, and also 'A4' for 440 Hz, or even strings like 'C#3+13'. With dB values, you can type e.g. '2x' to
get +6 dB (the value that corresponds to two times louder). With all values, you can also type a percentage (e.g.
'50%' will put a knob exactly in the middle position).
Sometimes, knobs in our plug-in interfaces are linked: these can be adjusted simultaneously by holding down the
Alt key (Shift key in Pro Tools) while dragging on one of them. For example, an output level and input level setting of
a plug-in could be adjusted simultaneously (in the opposite direction) this way.

Overview

Dynamic controls
The section in the top-left corner of the FabFilter Pro-G user interface is where the conventional gate/expansion settings
can be found: threshold, ratio and range. These determine the dynamic behavior and the amount of expansion.
Threshold
The Threshold knob sets the threshold at which the gate/expander will open. With a lower threshold, the gate/expander
will open earlier. Finding a good setting always depends on your audio, and the real-time display and metering will help
you set the right level.
Ratio
The Ratio knob sets the amount of expansion when the signal level drops below the threshold. At a ratio of 4:1, every dB
under the threshold results in an target reduction of -4 dB. If you set the knob to 1:1, no expansion will take place at all. If
you set the ratio to values larger than about 5:1, Pro-G will starting acting more and more as a gate.
Range
With the Range knob (often also called floor), you can specify the maximum expansion range of Pro-G. For example, when
you set it to 20 dB, Pro-G will reduce the signal level with a maximum of 20 dB. This way, you can choose to suppress
unwanted background noise only a bit, or expand only a specific area of the dynamic range.
Tip
Instead of using the incoming audio to open the gate/expander, you can also trigger it via MIDI. If MIDI is enabled
(see MIDI Learn
), the gate will open when you hit any key on your MIDI Keyboard controller, using the Note On
event.

Time controls, style and knee
The section at the right of the interface contains the controls that affect the speed and feel of the current chosen
gate/expander style.
Style
With the Style selection button, you can choose between various gate/expander styles, all tailored and fine-tuned carefully
to meet specific needs or offer a certain character:
Classic
This style brings you the flavor of gating and expansion as often found in vintage, high end mixer channel strips. It
can be quite aggressive, but also subtle when needed. It's a great all-round style for mixing purposes and works
especially well on drums.
Clean
Designed to be as clean as possible and minimize flutter and distortion, the Clean style is great for transparent
gating and expanding.
Vocal
Since a gate/expander is very often used on vocals, we have developed a special vocal gating algorithm. It retains
the natural feel of the vocal, opening the gate gently when the singer breathes in, and releasing gently, yet fast
enough to reduce unwanted noise or bleed.
Guitar
Another common application of a gate/expander is on electric guitar before distortion, to reduce or miminize rumble.
With this style, expecially when used in the lower ratio range (2:1 to 5:1), Pro-G gently follows the natural decay of
the guitar sound, ensuring that even after distortion, the result still sounds very natural and lively.
Upward
As a special treat, an upward expansion algorithm is also included. When you choose this style, separate Threshold
and Ratio parameters are used with custom, smaller ranges. In Upward mode, the expander will amplify signals
above the threshold instead of reducing them below threshold. When used moderately and with care, you can
achieve very natural and transparent sounding expansion effects.
Ducking
Finally, Pro-G also features a dedicated ducking mode, as found in many classic gates. A typical application of
ducking is to automatically lower the level of a musical background track when a voice-over starts, and to
automatically bring the level up again when the voice-over stops (in movies and on radio broadcasts). It is similar to
compression with a side-chain, but it can sound quite different, because it's processed as 'inverted' gating instead of
compression. Ducking can also be used to achieve the well-known and very popular 'pumping' effect, much used in
modern dance music.
All styles have built-in, carefully tuned hysteresis where needed. This will cause the gate to close at a slightly lower
threshold level than the threshold at which it will open (as set by the Threshold knob), avoiding flutter when the incoming
audio signal hovers around the threshold.
Attack
The Attack knob sets the speed with which the expander/gate will open when the signal level exceeds the threshold. For
transient-rich program material like drums, fast attack times are needed to preserve punch. FabFilter Pro-G is capable of
very fast attack times and they are program dependent.
Release
The Release knob sets the time that the expander/gate takes to close and reach maximum gain reduction. Just like the
attack, the behavior is very program dependent, depending heavily on the audio you're processing.
Hold
9
The Hold knob sets the minimum time that the gate/expander will remain fully opened after the sound level has exceeded
the threshold.
Knee
By choosing a custom soft knee setting, the gate/expander will react more gradually when sound drops below the
threshold. You can of course clearly see the effect of the Knee in the transfer curve shown within the level display.
Lookahead
With the Lookahead knob (often also called pre-open), the gate/expander can be set to open up to 10 ms before the audio
level actually exceeds the threshold. This is an excellent way to preserve transients, while still avoiding ultra-fast attack
times that might cause distortion or aliasing.
You can enable or disable look-ahead with the Lookahead Enabled button, just at the right-top of the Lookahead knob.
When look-ahead is disabled and oversampling is off, Pro-G works without any latency. When enabled, the latency will be
10 ms, plus a small additional latency if oversampling is enabled.
Tips
When using Upward expansion, it's best to avoid using high ratios in combination with a low threshold, because this
can lead to quite extreme amplification.

Metering
FabFilter Pro-G's metering is specifically designed to give clear feedback on the current gate/expander settings, helping
you to set them up.
The real-time level display
The large display in the center of the interface shows the output level (light blue) versus the input level (dark blue), with a
fixed 60 dB scale. This immediately displays when the gate/expander is open or closed, and how it is reacting to the
incoming audio signal.
You can enable or disable the real-time display using the toggle button in the right-bottom corner, right under the meter
scale, in case you find it distracting while listening.
The transfer curve
Within the level display, the transfer curve is shown. It visualizes the effect of the Threshold, Ratio, Range and Knee
settings. Together with the thin dashed threshold lines, this makes it easy to set up the gate/expander.
The level meter
Directly next to the level display, the level meter shows the output level versus the input level as well, which makes it easy
to interpret the current gating/expansion process.
Above the meter is a dB read-out, showing the maximum level that had been detected. You can reset it by simply clicking
on it.
When the output exceeds 0 dBFS, the meters will indicate clipping. To reset this, just click on the meter area or on the
read-out. Note: the actual audio is not clipped within Pro-G. The clipping indication is primarily useful for hosts that always
keep all audio within the 0 dBFS range, like Pro Tools HD.

Expert mode
If Expert mode is activated with the button under the level display, the interface will become larger, offering you additional
options to customize the side chain signal (which triggers the gate/expander) and adjust the wet/dry levels individually.
Internal/external input
Normally, when Side Chain is set to In, the side chain receives input from the regular plug-in input signal. Alternatively,
when set to Ext, the side-chain can receive its signal from any other track from your host. You can use the Audition button
to listen to the side chain signal exclusively.
The procedure of setting up external side-chaining can be quite different in various hosts. For more information and
detailed steps, see External side chaining
.
Filtering
To narrow the frequency range on which FabFilter Pro-G will trigger, you can filter the side chain signal with steep 48
dB/octave low-pass and high-pass filters. To adjust the filters, drag the triangular buttons in the middle of the side chain
section to the left or right. Alternatively, double-click a button to type a value directly. The filters will be bypassed
completely when they are at the far left and right sides of the filter controller. To drag both filters at once, either hold
down the Alt/Option key or drag the highlighted area between the buttons. Again, use the Audition button to listen to the
filtered side chain signal.
Side chain gain and mix
You can use the stereo version of Pro-G 100% stereo linked, but it is also possible to fully unlink the side-chain channels
and best of all, you can have anything in between. By using the combined Gain/Mix knobs at the left side of the Expert
section, it is possible to precisely determine the trigger signal that will be sent to each level detector of each channel.
The combined left knob is connected to the left gate/expander channel, the right knob to the right channel. The inner
knobs set the volume of the signal that is sent to the channels; the pan rings control where the signal is coming from: the
left or right side chain input or a mix of both.
For example, if you put both volume levels at zero dB and both mix rings in center position, Pro-G will be fully stereo
linked because both channel level detectors use the same audio signal. This keeps the stereo image from wandering from
left to right when expanding/gating a stereo signal. Alternatively, if you turn the mix ring for the left signal to the full left
position and the right mix ring to the full right position, Pro-G's side-chain is fully unlinked. Now expansion on both
channels will work independently. (You can hold down the Alt/Option key to link both panning rings.)
When Channel Mode is set to Mid/Side
, the mix rings let you specify a trigger signal as a mix of the mid and side signals,
instead of a mix of left and right signals. This way, you can for example choose to trigger on the mid signal only, or
expand mono and stereo information independently.
All other settings will result in anything between linked and unlinked. You can even cross-link the channels, so that the
side-channel is gated when the mid-signal drops below the threshold... anything is possible!
Wet and Dry levels
The Wet and Dry combined knobs on the right of the expert section offer individual control of the wet (processed) and dry
(unprocessed) signal. This makes it possible to slightly "dilute" the gating/expansion effect, and also control panning.
Notes
If Expert mode is off, FabFilter Pro-G does not use any of the expert controls, and always triggers on the main input
signal, fully stereo linked, without filtering, and with 100% wet signal and 0% dry signal. This means that if the
expert section is hidden, you can be sure it is disabled as well.
The gate/expander in FabFilter Pro-G is also triggered by MIDI notes. If at least one note is on, the gate/expander
behaves as if a 0 dB signal is entering the side chain at this moment, so it is fully triggered. The Disable/Enable MIDI
option in the MIDI
Learn menu turns this off as well.

Oversampling
The expansion/gating algorithm often needs to make very quick changes to the audio when opening or closing. These
sudden changes can introduce aliasing, which causes distortion and generally reduces the quality of the audio signal.
Oversampling is a way to reduce that aliasing by running the internal process at a sample rate that is two or four times
higher than the host's sample rate. When should you use oversampling? You need it more when when you're using very
short attack or release times, especially in combination with a high ratio and range.
Of course, in return for a reduction of possible aliasing/distortion, the plug-in will use more CPU power when using
oversampling. In addition, oversampling introduces a small latency, in addition to any look-ahead latency
.
Next: Mid/Side processing

Overview
13
Mid/Side processing
The Channel Mode button in the bottom bar selects between normal Left/Right processing and Mid/Side processing.
Mid/side is a representation of stereo sound as the sum and difference of the two channels. The concept has its origin in
stereo microphone techniques using two microphones (more about that here on Wikipedia
) but also gives us many
options to change a stereo audio signal.
When you set the Channel Mode to Mid/Side, the incoming stereo signal (normal left and right audio) will be converted to
mid (mono information; audio that's equally present in both channels) and side (pure stereo information; audio only
present in either the left or right channel). The mid information is processed by the internal left channel, and the side
information by the right channel. Of course, after the expansion/gating process, the mid/side signal is converted back to
stereo again.
Any conventional stereo signal can be converted to Mid/Side stereo, and back again, with no loss of information. Using the
Mid and Side channels to treat them differently gives many creative opportunities, providing tremendous amount of control
over the stereo spread.
You can use mid/side processing in Pro-G to achieve various useful and creative effects. For example, your can trigger only
on the mid/mono signal to avoid flutter etc. Or you could enhance the stereo dynamics/feel of a mix by gently expanding
the side/stereo information only. With the highly adjustable side chain settings in Expert mode
, anything is possible!

In addition to Full Screen mode, you can also customize the normal interface size using the Resize button at the right of
the bottom bar. You can choose between Small, Medium (the default size), Large or Extra Large. Once you have selected a
size, it will automatically become the default size for new plug-in instances.
Scaling
At the bottom of the resize menu, the Scaling submenu lets you increase or decrease the interface scaling relative to the
system default, e.g. 150% (smaller) or 300% (larger) on Retina monitors (that have a 200% scaling by default).
When you enable Full Screen mode, the plug-in will automatically choose an appropriate scaling so that all controls
become a bit larger. The plug-in automatically remembers the chosen scalings for normal and Full screen mode, and also
per monitor type (Retina / High DPI or regular), so once you've customized the settings to your preference, you don't have
to worry about it anymore.

Tips
When using the VST3 plug-in, you can resize the plug-in interface by just dragging the window edges to any size you
like. Of course you can always go back to one of the predefined sizes with the resize button.
The large interface options will be greyed out in the Resize button menu if the current display is too small to support
them, and the same applies to the scaling options.

Input and output options
At the righthand side of the bottom bar in the interface, FabFilter Pro-G contains the bypass, input level and output level
parameters.
Bypass
You can bypass the entire plug-in with the Global Bypass toggle button to the left of the input level button. While most
hosts already provide the ability to bypass plug-ins, our internal global bypass feature is guaranteed to correctly
compensate the latency of the plug-in and it also applies soft bypassing to avoid clicks. While the plug-in is bypassed, the
display dims and a red light glows in the bypass button itself.
Input and output levels and pannning
With the input and output level/pan knobs, you can fully adjust the stereo audio level both before and after of the
expansion/gating process.
Notes
You can directly adjust the input or output gain by clicking and dragging the button vertically, so there is no need to
click it first to display the knobs. You can also double-click the buttons to directly enter a value using the keyboard.
When Channel Mode is set to Mid/Side, the pan rings around the level knobs will pan between mid (only mono) and
side (only stereo) instead of between left and right.

MIDI Learn
Controlling FabFilter Pro-G's parameters directly with MIDI is very easy using the MIDI Learn feature. With MIDI Learn,
you can associate any MIDI controller with any parameter.
Click the MIDI Learn button in the bottom bar to enter MIDI Learn mode. The interface dims and the parameters that can
be controlled are highlighted. Each parameter has a small text balloon that displays the associated controller number. Now
do the following to associate a controller number with a parameter:
1. Touch the control of the desired parameter in the interface that you wish to control. A red square will mark the
chosen parameter.
2. Adjust the slider or knob on your MIDI keyboard or MIDI controller that you want to associate with that
parameter.
That's it! The parameter will now be controlled with the MIDI controller. You can now go back to step 1 to associate a
different parameter. Note that there is no warning when you associate a different knob with a controller number that is
already used. It will just be replaced.
To exit MIDI Learn mode, click the MIDI Learn button again, or click Close at the top of the interface.
Click the small menu drop-down button next to the MIDI Learn button to access the MIDI Learn menu:
Enable MIDI
This globally turns MIDI control of parameters on or off: useful in hosts that automatically send all MIDI events on a
track to all effect plug-ins associated with that track as well.
Clear
This submenu shows all parameter associations and lets you delete individual associations or clear all associations in
one step.
Revert
Reverts to the last saved MIDI mapping (or the state when the plug-in was started).
Save
Saves the current MIDI mapping so Revert will go back to this state. The current mapping is automatically saved
when closing the plug-in.
Routing MIDI to effect plug-ins
For MIDI Learn to work properly, the plug-in need to actually receive MIDI of course. Depending on your host, it can be
quite difficult to route MIDI data to effect plug-ins. Here's how to do it in the most important hosts:
Pro Tools
Create a new MIDI track. From the MIDI input drop down menu, choose your MIDI device (if not already selected)
and from the MIDI output drop down menu, choose FabFilter Pro-G -> channel 1 for the instance you would like to
control.
Logic Pro
Instead of adding FabFilter Pro-G to one of the insert slots, create a new Instrument Track, and click on the
Instrument slot. Then choose AU MIDI-controlled Effects > FabFilter > Pro-G. Now, the plug-in receives MIDI. To
get audio into the plug-in, click the 'Side Chain' drop down menu in Logic's plug-in header and choose the actual
input track. Next, you can mute that original track, so you only hear the audio through the plug-in. The only
downside is that plug-ins with an external side-chain cannot use it anymore.
Ableton Live
18
First of all, create a new MIDI track. From the 'MIDI from' drop down menu, choose your MIDI device (if not
already selected). Then, in the 'MIDI to' drop down menu, choose the Audio track that has FabFilter Pro-G on it.
Note: only the first plug-in on any track can receive MIDI.
Cubase
Simply create a new MIDI track and set its output to the Pro-G instance you would like to control via MIDI.
Notes
The gate/expander in FabFilter Pro-G is also triggered by MIDI notes. If at least one note is on, the gate/expander
behaves as if a 0 dB signal is entering the side chain
at this moment, so it is fully triggered. The Disable/Enable MIDI
option in the MIDI Learn menu turns this off as well.
Next: Undo, redo, A/B switch

Overview
19
Undo, redo, A/B switch
The Undo and Redo buttons at the top of the FabFilter Pro-G interface enable you to easily undo changes you made to the
plug-in. With the A/B feature, you can quickly switch between two different states of the plug-in.
The Undo button at the left will undo the last change. Every change to the plug-in (such as dragging a knob or
selecting a new preset) creates a new state in the undo history. The Undo button steps back through the history to
restore the previous states of the plug-in.
The Redo button cancels the last undo command. It steps forward through the history until you are back at the most
recent plug-in state.
The A/B button switches from A to B and back. Before switching, the current state of the plug-in is saved, so if you
click this button twice, you are back at the first state. The button highlights the currently selected state (A or B). In
the example above, the A state is active.
The Copy button copies the active state to the inactive state. This marks the current state of the plug-in and allows
you to go back to it easily with the A/B button. After clicking Copy, the button disables itself to show that both states
are equal, so there is nothing to copy anymore.
Notes
If the plug-in parameters are changed without using the plug-in interface, for example with MIDI or automation, no
new undo states are recorded.
The Undo and Redo buttons will disable themselves if there is nothing to undo or redo.

Loading presets
FabFilter Pro-G comes with a selection of excellent factory presets that provide ready-to-go gate or expander setups for
almost all scenarios and types of audio.
To load a preset, click the preset button. The presets menu will appear with all available presets. Click a menu item
to load that preset. The currently selected preset is highlighted with check marks.
To explore the presets one by one, click on the little arrow buttons to the left and right of the main preset button.
This will load the previous or next preset in the menu.
The preset button shows the name of the current preset. If you have changed the preset by adjusting one or more
parameters, the name is dimmed to indicate that this is not the original preset anymore.
Tips
The Default Setting preset is loaded automatically when FabFilter Pro-G is started. To change the default settings,
simply overwrite this preset by clicking Options > Save As Default in the presets menu.
To open a preset outside the presets folder, click Options > Open Other Preset. This might be useful if someone
sends you a preset by email, for example.
If somehow the factory presets are lost or not installed properly, click Options > Restore Factory Presets in the
preset menu to restore them.
MIDI Program Change and Bank Select
Loading a presets can also be done via MIDI, using Bank Select and Program Change messages. Click Options > Enable
MIDI Program Changes in the preset menu to enable or disable this feature. When enabled, the corresponding
bank/program numbers are shown in front of the preset name (for example: (0/65) My Preset). This means that you can
load that preset by first sending a Bank Select message to select bank 0 and then sending a Program Change message to
select program 65.
Important: All the presets in your preset folder are numbered automatically, starting with bank 0 and program 0. This
way, you are able to access any of the presets via MIDI. However, this also means that when you add new presets to the
menu, bank/program numbers of other presets might change. Be aware of this when recording program changes in a
session! We recommend to create a dedicated folder in your presets folder for your program changes, and name it with
two leading underscores (e.g. "__Programs") to ensure it's the first folder in your preset collection and the presets in this
folder start with bank 0 and program 0.

Saving presets
You can easily extend the included presets with new settings to build your own library of presets for FabFilter Pro-G that
you can reuse in various projects. This is also a good way to copy settings across multiple instances of FabFilter Pro-G in a
session.
To save the current setting as a preset, click the preset button, and then click Save As. A standard Save dialog will appear.
Type a name for the new preset and click Save to finish.
In the Save dialog, you can also rename and delete existing presets and create a new folder to store presets in. New
folders will show up as new categories in the preset menu. (On macOS, this should be done with the Finder.)
Right-click shortcut menu
You can also right-click on the preset button to open a small menu with shortcuts:
Save: Overwrite the currently loaded preset. You will be asked for confirmation before saving.
Save As: Just like choosing the 'Save As...' item from the main menu.
See How presets are stored to determine the preset folder location and learn more about factory presets.

Overview
22
How presets are stored
Presets for FabFilter Pro-G are stored in separate files with the .ffp extension (for FabFilter Preset). All presets reside in
subfolders in the main preset folder. The subfolders will show up as separate categories in the preset menu. You can also
further divide the subfolders into categories.
You can manage the preset files just like other files on your computer. The easiest way to do this is in the Save dialog that
appears if you are saving a preset. The preset menu will automatically reload itself with the changes when the dialog is
closed.
Furthermore it is very easy to share your newly created presets with other users since FabFilter presets use the same file
format on both Windows and macOS.
The default location of the main preset folder is Documents/FabFilter/Presets/Pro-G on both Windows and macOS. To
change this location, first copy all presets to the desired new location. Click Options > Change Preset Folder in the
preset menu and select the new folder.
Note: previously on macOS, presets were stored in ~/Library/Audio/Presets/FabFilter/FabFilter Pro-G. To determine the
current location of the presets folder, click Options > Change Preset Folder in the preset menu.
Restoring factory presets
If you have accidentally lost the factory presets, you can easily restore them by clicking Options > Restore Factory
Presets in the preset menu. This will install all factory presets again.

Manual installation
When installing FabFilter Pro-G, the installation program will try to copy the plug-in into the appropriate plug-ins folders,
and in most cases your host will recognize FabFilter Pro-G automatically. Otherwise, please follow these instructions:
Windows
On Windows, most hosts have their own VST plug-ins folder. So if you are using Windows and your host does not
recognize FabFilter Pro-G, you need to locate the proper plug-ins folder for your host first (it is usually shown in the
Preferences or similar dialog). Then, copy the file FabFilter Pro-G.dll from C:\Program Files\FabFilter\Pro-G (or C:\Program
Files (x86)\FabFilter\Pro-G if you are using a 32-bit host on 64-bit Windows) to the plug-ins folder that you have found
and restart the host so it can reload all its plug-ins. The VST3, CLAP, and AAX plug-ins are installed in the standard plug-in
folders on your computer.
You can simply uninstall plug-ins or bundles via the Control Panel.
macOS
On macOS, plug-ins are installed in the standard plug-in folders in the system Library folder. These are the only possible
correct locations:
Audio Units: /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components
VST/VST3: /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST and /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3
CLAP: /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/CLAP
AAX: /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins
Note: AU and VST/VST3 plug-ins may also be placed in the user's Library folders under
/Users/<username>/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins.
To uninstall the plug-ins from your Mac, you can just delete the specific FabFilter plug-in files at the above locations.
Finally, if you really want to delete all data written by our plug-ins, you can remove the following folders/files as well:
/Users/<username>/Documents/FabFilter/Presets/Pro-G
/Users/<username>/Library/Audio/Presets/FabFilter/FabFilter Pro-G
/Users/<username>/Library/Application Support/FabFilter/Pro-G
/Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/com.fabfilter.Pro-G.1.plist
Note: Since OS X 10.7 (Lion), the system and user Library folders are marked as hidden by default. To make them visible
again in Finder, open Terminal (found in /Applications/Utilities) and enter the following commands:
chflags nohidden /Library
chflags nohidden ~/Library
If you still have problems, contact FabFilter Support .

VST plug-in versions
FabFilter Pro-G is available in both VST 2 and VST 3 formats. They can be installed and used both at the same time. The
VST 3 format offers easy side-chaining and is more CPU-friendly in some cases, but it can only be used by hosts that
support it, for example recent versions of Cubase, Studio One or FL Studio. The VST 2 format is compatible with a larger
variety of hosts.
Both the VST 2 and VST 3 versions of the plug-in automatically adapt themselves to the channel layout of the track they
are inserted on (mono/stereo).
For the VST 2 format, there is a separate FabFilter Pro-G (Mono) version of the plug-in which always runs in mono mode.
This is included for backwards compatibility with existing sessions. For new sessions we recommend to use the regular
plug-in which automatically adapts itself to the track it is inserted on.

28
External side chaining
FabFilter Pro-G offers the possibility of feeding an external signal to its side chain, so that you can make it trigger on a
different signal than the audio it is actually processing. Feeding a signal to a plug-in's side-chain inputs works slightly
different in various hosts. This topic describes the procedure for some of the most popular hosts around: Pro Tools
, Studio
One, Ableton Live, Logic Pro and Cubase.
To explain how it works, we use a scenario with two tracks. The first one contains the audio that we want to process with
Pro-G, which we'll call the main track from now. The second track contains the audio that we want to route to Pro-G's
external side-chain input and use as trigger signal. We'll call this track the side chain track.
After setting up everything according to the instructions below for your host, you can check whether everything is routed
correctly. Play the audio and enable FabFilter Pro-G's Audition button to listen to the side-chain signal. While auditioning,
the real-time display and metering show the side-chain level, so you can easily set a correct trigger threshold. Afterwards,
disable the Audition mode again. Now, you'll hear that Pro-G on the main track will react to the sound of the side-chain
track. Of course, you can fine-tune the plug-ins settings to customize the effect.
Pro Tools
Open Pro Tools and start a new empty session.
Create two audio tracks that we'll use as main track and side chain track. Add audio files to both track.
Open the Mix window to display the tracks with their Insert slots and Sends slots.
In the first 'Sends' slot of the side chain track, choose 'Bus 1'. The track view for Bus 1 will open: set its level slider
to 0.0 dB so the bus actually produces audio!
In the first 'Inserts' slot of the main track, choose Dynamics > FabFilter Pro-G.
Open FabFilter Pro-G's interface, enable Expert / Side Chain mode, and set Side Chain to Ext.
Now, in the 'Key Input' menu of the plug-in interface (just above the FabFilter logo), choose bus > Bus 1 instead of
the default 'no key input'. Now, the audio from the side chain track is routed to Pro-G's external side chain input via
Bus 1.
Studio One
Open Studio One and choose 'Create a new song'.
Add two audio tracks (via Track > Add Tracks...) that we'll use as main track and side chain track.
Add audio files on both the main track and the side chain track. You can simply drag audio files from a
Finder/Explorer window onto a track.
Access the mix window via "Mix" in Studio One's bottom right corner.
Insert FabFilter Pro-G on your main track via the '+' button next to the Insert tab.
Open FabFilter Pro-G's interface, enable Expert mode, and set Side Chain to Ext.
On the side chain track, select Sends > Sidechains > FabFilter Pro-G.
29
Ableton Live
Open Ableton Live and start with an empty arrangement. We'll use Track 1 as the side chain track and Track 2 as the
main track.
From the folder menu's on at the left top of Ableton Live's interface, drag different audio clips to the first empty slots
of Track 1 and Track 2.
From the VST (or Audio Units) plug-in menu, also at the left top of Ableton Live's interface, drag FabFilter Pro-G onto
Track 2, the main track.
In the small device interface for Pro-G in the bottom Effects section, choose 'Track 1' from the 'Sidechain' drop down
menu.
Open FabFilter Pro-G's interface, enable Expert mode, and set Side Chain to Ext.
Note: In earlier versions of Ableton Live (< 10.1), setting up sidechaining worked differently, which is described
here
.
Logic Pro
Open Logic Pro and create a new empty project via File > New...
Add two audio tracks (via Track > New...) that we'll use as main track and side chain track.
Add audio files on both the main track and the side chain track. You can simply drag audio files from a
Finder/Explorer window onto a track.
Select the main track and add Pro-G in the first Insert effect slot.
Open FabFilter Pro-G's interface, enable Expert mode, and set Side Chain to Ext.
In the right top corner of the plug-in interface header, in the 'Side Chain' menu, choose the side chain track. Now,
the signal from the side chain track is sent to FabFilter Pro-G's external side-chain input.
30
Cubase
Open Cubase and create a new empty project.
Add two audio tracks that we'll use as main track and side chain track.
Add audio files on both the main track and the side chain track. You can simply drag audio files from a
Finder/Explorer window onto a track.
Open the Mixer. In the main track, click on an empty insert slot and select the VST 3 version of FabFilter Pro-G in the
Dynamics menu (note the VST 3 icon which looks like ///).
Open FabFilter Pro-G's interface, enable Expert mode, and set Side Chain to Ext.
In the plug-in header, click on the Activate Side-Chain button (right of the R/W buttons) to enable the external side
chain in Cubase.
At the top of the Mixer, set the output for the side chain track to the side-chain input of FabFilter Pro-G.

FabFilter Software License Agreement
This license agreement concerns and describes your rights and the conditions upon which you may use the FabFilter
software you selected. We advise you to read this entire agreement. By accepting this agreement or by using FabFilter
software, you agree to all of these terms. If you do not accept and comply with these terms, you may not use the FabFilter
software or its features.
Applicability
This license agreement applies to all the FabFilter software, plug-ins and programs you may use during the Evaluation
period, and/or thereafter subject to an acquired license key to certain FabFilter software of any version, including any and
all upgrades, supplements or services, unless other terms come with such versions, upgrades or supplements.
Licenses
The software will be licensed to the Customer, not sold. With the FabFilter license key, you will be granted after full
payment the right in perpetuity (meaning that the license agreement shall not automatically expire) to install, run and use
the software concerned under certain conditions. These conditions vary subject to the license you acquired. FabFilter
distinguishes the following licenses:
A Personal License is a named license to the software concerned, granting access to the software on an unlimited
number of Devices, as long the license is used by the designated person who acquired the FabFilter license key.
Usage of the Personal license by someone else but the designated licensee is an infringement of the rights of
FabFilter. The Customer should at all times protect its license key from theft and/or abuse.
A Site License is a non-personal license to the FabFilter software concerned, acquired on the name of an institution
or entity, who is the licensee. A Site License will grant access to the FabFilter software on a certain maximum
number of designated Devices, as specified in the license key itself (e.g. "20 seats"). If the Site License is used on
computers/servers for any form of automated processing, the licensee may not make any plug-in
controls/parameters of the FabFilter software available to the end users of the FabFilter software, i.e. only "black
box" processing is allowed.
These FabFilter licenses, whether a Personal or Site License, will give you access to certain FabFilter software of the
specified major version. The license will include all future minor updates to the software (e.g. version 2.19 to version
2.20), which typically include bug fixes or small new features. The license will exclude any future new major versions of
the products (e.g. version 1.x to version 2.x). To allow yourself access to such new major version of the software, a new
FabFilter license to such major version must be acquired.
All FabFilter licenses, both Personal or Site License, give the Customer or end user the right to install and use the FabFilter
software to the extent it has been developed and under the conditions herein. Any rights not explicitly granted to you, the
Customer, remain with FabFilter, including but not limited to the right to alter, reverse engineer, reverse compile, take
apart, or disassemble the FabFilter software or any of the files in the distribution.
A Bundle License is Personal or Site License for multiple FabFilter software products, which gives the Customer or end user
the right to install and use the specific software products that the bundle (e.g. Total Bundle) contains at the moment of
purchasing the Bundle License. Any software products or new major software versions added to the bundle after that date
cannot be claimed as part of the prior acquired Bundle License. A Bundle License (if not Educational or NFR) can only be
transferred as a whole, using a License Transfer.
An Upgrade License is a Personal or Site License for a new major version of FabFilter software. You may only use an
Upgrade License if you have a license for the previous major version of the same FabFilter software.
Educational (EDU) and NFR licenses
A Personal or Site License can be marked as EDU (Educational) or NFR (Not For Resale), meaning the following:
A Personal or Site License marked as Educational License is equal to the respective Personal or Site License, with the
only exception that the Educational License may not be transferred to a third party.
A Personal or Site License marked as NFR ("Not For Resale"), is typically intended for journalists that wish to review
the FabFilter software. A License marked as NFR is equal to the respective Personal or Site License, with the only
exception that the NFR License may not be transferred to a third party.
Duration and Evaluation
As specified in the specific terms per license, all licenses will be granted for perpetuity (meaning that the license
agreement shall not automatically expire), as long as all conditions herein are respected.
The Evaluation period is a period of thirty (30) days commencing on the first day of using the software concerned and
automatically expiring 30 days thereafter. After the Evaluation period has expired and no FabFilter license key has been
acquired, the software will stop working and should be removed from your computer.
In addition to any and all such possibilities that FabFilter may have in accordance with the law, FabFilter may terminate
without prior notice or warning in case of abuse of the FabFilter software as well as in case of (personal) bankruptcy.
Support
FabFilter shall give its reasonable commercial efforts to service any major version of any FabFilter software including email
support. FabFilter is entitled to terminate support for any major version of any FabFilter software at any time at its sole
discretion.
License Transfer
32
A Personal or Site License (not Educational or NFR) may be transferred to a third party. You will have to buy a License
Transfer to activate the "transfer"-option in your FabFilter account . After this option has been activated you will be able
to transfer your license to any third party.

Beautiful sound. Fantastic workflow. These are the foundations of FabFilter. We create powerful audio plug-ins with superb
sound quality and innovative interfaces.
A unique perspective
At FabFilter, we make the best possible tools for music production and audio processing. To achieve this, we continually
rethink and challenge industry standards: we've never been afraid of reinventing the wheel. Considering every little detail,
we tune our algorithms and interfaces until they sound perfect, look amazing and feel great to work with.
It's the sound that counts
Above everything else, you need superb sound quality. That's why we put a lot of effort into developing unique audio
processing algorithms, ranging from our famous resonating filters to transparent high-end EQ and dynamics processing.
Innovative interfaces, great design
Every FabFilter plug-in has an easy-to-use, well-designed interface aimed at providing unsurpassed workflow. Our plug-ins
focus on the task you're performing at that specific moment: they expose the features you need, when you need them.
And because of our special attention to design, you'll be delighted every time you open a FabFilter plug-in.
Don't take our word for it
We always set the highest standard for sound quality, usability and design to make truly great products that raise the bar
on what audio software can do. That's why we're very happy with the praise we've received from users and press alike:
"In the decade since the release of its first plug-in, One, FabFilter has made an indelible mark on the music
production landscape." — Computer Music magazine
"While many other software developers are busy trying to model hardware, FabFilter is leaving them in the dust
by being visionaries and reaching into the future. FabFilter stuff is just on another level." — Jeff Sanders
"FabFilter has an enviable reputation for making easy-to-use, powerful tools." — Music Tech magazine
FabFilter was founded in 2002 by Frederik Slijkerman and Floris Klinkert, and is based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
