The Spectrum Analyzer
3. Click “Preview” to listen to the result.
The event is played back repeatedly in its entire length, but with the “closed”
sections silenced.
4. Adjust the settings in the Detection section until you are satisfied with the result.
5. In the Output section, activate the “Add as Regions” or the “Strip Silence” option,
or both.
“Add as Regions” will create regions according to the non-silent sections. “Strip
Silence” will split the event at the beginning and end of each non-silent section,
and remove the silent sections in between.
Ö If you activate the “Add as Regions” option, you can specify a name for the regions in
the Region Name field. In addition to the name, the regions will be numbered, starting
with the number specified in the “Auto Number Start” field.
Ö If you have selected more than one event, you can activate the “Process all selected
Events” checkbox to apply the same settings to all selected events.
6. Click the Process button.
The event is split and/or regions are added.
Ö If you have selected more than one event and did not activate the “Process all
selected Events” option in the Output section, the dialog opens again after
processing, allowing you to make separate settings for the next event.
The Spectrum Analyzer
This function analyzes the selected audio, computes the average “spectrum” (level
distribution over the frequency range) and displays this as a two-dimensional graph,
with frequency on the x-axis and level on the y-axis.
1. Make an audio selection (a clip, an event or a range selection).
2. Select “Spectrum Analyzer” from the Audio menu.
A dialog with settings for the analysis appears.
