THE MICROSHIFT CONTROL PANEL

MicroShift — Version 5

Figure 2: MicroShift’s Main GUI

The Mix control determines the balance between the dry (unprocessed)

and wet (processed) sounds in MicroShift. For the clearest, widest

sound, 100 percent wet is the way to go. For a thicker, more chorused

sound, you can use the Mix control to blend in the original dry signal

with the pitch shifted and delayed effect.

MIX

Detune increases or decreases the amount of micro pitch-shifting that

is happening with any of the three styles. Because the pitch shifting for

each style is continually time varying, this control is in units of percent.

At 50%, the amount of detuning is halved. At 200%, the amount of

detuning is doubled.

DETUNE

The Delay control increases or decreases the amount of delay that is

happening with any of the three styles. Because the delay for each style

is continually time varying, this control is in units of percent. At 50%,

the amount of delay is halved. At 200%, the amount of delay is doubled.

DELAY

The Focus knob controls the crossover point of a 2-band crossover ﬁlter,

applying the affected signal only to the high band. While very source

dependent, it’s useful for widening mid and high frequency content

without making the low end sound loose or muddy. It defaults to 20 Hz,

but can go all the way up to 10 kHz.
