You can specify the desired gain level in several ways:
• Enter a numeric decibel value.
• Enter a percentage value.
•Drag the slider.
• Press and hold the Ctrl key (Windows) or the Command key (Macintosh), then drag the
slider to fine-adjust.
• Use the rms and peak buttons to switch the calibration of gain adjustment between RMS and
Peak modes.
Peak adjusts the gain of the signal to the maximum possible level without clipping. RMS
adjusts the input signal to a level consistent with the root-mean-square value, or the effective
average level of the selected material.
Invert (AudioSuite)
The Invert plug-in reverses the polarity of the selected audio. All positive sample amplitude
values become negative, and all negative amplitudes become positive. You can use this process
for permanently altering the phase (polarity) relationship of tracks. Inverting can be useful when
mixing because it alters frequency response between source tracks recorded with multiple
microphones and also lets you correct for audio that was recorded out of phase.
Lo-Fi Plug-In (RTAS and AudioSuite)
Lo-Fi down-processes audio by reducing its sample rate and bit resolution. It is ideal for
emulating the grungy quality of 8-bit samplers.
The following table lists the Lo-Fi plug-in parameters:
