AIR Frequency Shifter (RTAS)

You can use the Frequency Shifter plug-in to shift the audio signal’s individual frequencies

inharmonically, creating a unique effect.

The following table lists the AIR Frequency Shifter plug-in parameters:

EQ Provides controls for cutting lows from the Flanger signal, and inverting phase.

• Phase Invert — When enabled, Phase Invert flips the wet signal’s polarity, which changes

the harmonic structure of the effect.

• Low Cut — Lets you adjust the Low Cut frequency for the Flanger, to limit the Flanger

effects to higher frequencies.

Feedback Lets you adjust the amount of delay feedback for the Flanger. At 0%, the delay repeats only

once. At +/–100%, the Flanger feeds back on itself.

Mix Lets you balance the amount of dry signal with the amount of wet (flanged) signal. At 50%, the

output includes equal amounts of dry and wet signal. At 0%, the output is all dry and at 100% it

is all wet.

You can use the Mix control to create an “infinite phaser” effect between the dry and shifted

signals, which always rises or always falls (depending on the direction of shift).

Parameter Description

Frequency Sets the amount of frequency shifting.

Shifter Provides control over the direction of frequency shift, and feedback of the signal through the

algorithm.

• Mode — Sets the direction of the frequency shifting effect:

- Up — Shifts frequencies up.

- Down — Shifts frequencies down.

- Up & Down — Shifts frequencies equally up and down, and the two shifted signals are

heard simultaneously.

- Stereo — Shifts the right channel frequencies up, and the left channel down.

• Feedback — Lets you run the signal through the pitch shifting algorithm multiple times,

creating a cascading, layered effect.

Mix Lets you balance the amount of dry signal with the amount of wet (delayed) signal. At 50%, the

output includes equal amounts of dry and wet signal. At 0%, the output is all dry and at 100% it

is all wet.
