Reference Manual

357 Live Audio Effect Reference
The Width control acts as a continuous mono to stereo controller when set from 0 to 100 per-
cent. However, beyond 100 percent the output starts to ”fold in” on itself. At 200 percent the
output contains only the difference between the left and right channels. If either Left or Right
have been chosen in the Channel Mode chooser, the Width control has no function and is there-
fore disabled.
At the bottom of the device you will find two Phase controls, one for each channel. As their
names imply, they invert the phase of each channel.
22.33 Vinyl Distortion
The Vinyl Distortion Effect.
(Note: the Vinyl Distortion effect is not available in the Intro and Lite Editions.)
The Vinyl Distortion effect emulates some of the typical distortions that occur on vinyl records
during playback. These distortions are caused by the geometric relationships between the
needle and the recorded groove. The effect also features a crackle generator for adding noisy
artifacts.
The Tracing Model section adds even harmonic distortion to the input signal. Adjust the amount
of distortion with the Drive knob, or click and drag vertically in the Tracing Model X-Y display. To
adjust the distortion’s frequency or ”color,” drag horizontally in the X-Y display or double-click
on the Freq field and type in a value. Holding the [ALT](PC) / [ALT](Mac) modifier while drag-
ging vertically in the X-Y display changes the frequency band’s Q (bandwidth).
