One of BEAM’s most flexible features is the ability to split signal paths into combinations of parallel and serial sequences.

Parallel Signal Paths

BEAM can support up to 6 parallel signal paths at any point on the graph. When hovering over the signal path, you will see split icons allowing you to drag and drop a new path from left to right. The plugin will automatically adjust the output gain of each path as new paths are added (i.e. the volume of six parallel paths will be the same as one).

Global Path

To view the global path controls in BEAM, click on the outer edges of the signal path to highlight the entire graph. This will open a mix panel with options to set the output gain and pain of the entire signal path. By default, a soft limiter is enabled at the end of the global path. You will also be able to see at a glance all the possible split points for new paths.

In the top right of the interface, you can adjust the global mix and global output of the plugin.
