Analyst
Figure 364. Analyst
Analyst is a spectrum analyzer, and can also generate automation envelopes.
You can operate Analyst in either one of two modes:
• Spectrum mode. Vertical axis represents dB, horizontal axis represents frequency (as pictured
above).
•
Sonograph mode. This mode displays a color-coded historical representation of the audio.
Level is indicated by color; vertical axis represents frequency. Horizontal axis represents time,
with NOW being at the right edge, and the history going toward the left.
For more information, see the Analyst online Help.
