Included VST Audio Effect Plugins AmpSimulator AmpSimulator is a distortion effect that emulates the sound of various types of guitar amp and speaker cabinet combinations. A wide selection of amp and cabinet models is available. Select Amplifier Model This pop-up menu allows you to select an amplifier model. You can bypass this section by selecting No Amp. Drive Controls the amount of amp overdrive. Bass Tone control for the low frequencies. Mid Tone control for the mid frequencies.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins AutoPan AutoPan This auto-pan effect provides several parameters to modulate the left/right stereo position. You can use presets or create individual curves for the modulation waveform. AutoPan also allows for chopping effects by linking the modulation of left and right channel. Waveform display Shows the shape of the modulation waveform and allows you to manually adjust it. To draw an individual curve, click a node and move the mouse.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Brickwall Limiter Rate Sets the auto-pan speed and shows the movement within the panorama. If Sync is deactivated, the speed is set in Hertz. If Sync is activated, you can set the speed in tempo values. Sync Activates/Deactivates tempo sync. Link If this button is activated, the left and right channel are modulated simultaneously. This results in a chopping effect instead of auto-panning. In this mode, Width sets the intensity of the volume modulation.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Chorus Detect Intersample Clipping If this option is activated, the plug-in uses oversampling to detect and limit signal levels between two samples to prevent distortion when converting digital signals into analog signals. NOTE Brickwall Limiter is designed for the reduction of occasional peaks in the signal. If the Gain Reduction meter indicates constant limiting, try raising the threshold or lowering the overall level of the input signal.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Compressor Lo Filter/Hi Filter Allow you to roll off low and high frequencies of the effect signal. Compressor Compressor reduces the dynamic range of the audio, making softer sounds louder or louder sounds softer, or both. Compressor features a separate display that graphically illustrates the compressor curve that is shaped according to the Threshold and Ratio parameter settings.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Distortion Attack (0.1 to 100 ms) Determines how fast the compressor responds to signals above the set threshold. If the attack time is long, more of the early part of the signal passes through unprocessed. Hold (0 to 5000 ms) Sets the time the applied compression affects the signal after exceeding the threshold. Short hold times are useful for DJ-style ducking, while longer hold times are required for music ducking, for example, when working on a documentary film.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins DJ-EQ Boost Increases the distortion amount. Oversampling Activates/Deactivates oversampling. Oversampling results in less artifacts for higher distortion. NOTE If this parameter is activated, the effect requires more processing power. Mix Sets the level balance between dry and wet signal. Tone Changes the tonal characteristic of the output signal. Feedback Feeds part of the output signal back to the effect input. Higher settings increase the distortion effect.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins DualFilter ● To set a parameter to zero, press Ctrl/Cmd and click it. Low Frequency Gain/Mid Frequency Gain/High Frequency Gain Set the amount of boost or attenuation for the low, mid, and high band. Cut Low Frequencies/Cut Mid Frequencies/Cut High Frequencies Cut the low, mid, and high band. Output meter Shows the level of the output signal. DualFilter DualFilter filters out specific frequencies while allowing others to pass through.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Flanger Attack (-20 to 20 dB) Sets the gain of the attack phase of the signal. Length (5 to 200 ms) Sets the length of the attack phase. Release Sets the gain of the release phase of the signal. Output Sets the output level. Flanger This is a classic flanger effect with added stereo enhancement. Delay Affects the frequency range of the modulation sweep by adjusting the initial delay time. Feedback Determines the character of the flanger effect.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Gate Rate If Tempo Sync is activated, Rate allows you to specify the base note value for synchronizing the flanger sweep to the tempo of the host application (1/1 to 1/32, straight, triplet, or dotted). If Tempo Sync is deactivated, the sweep rate can be set freely with the Rate dial. Sync Activates/Deactivates tempo sync. Spatial Sets the stereo width of the effect. Turn clockwise for a wider stereo effect.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Gate NOTE Deactivate the Live button to make sure that the gate is already open when a signal above the threshold is played back. Hold (0 to 2000 ms) Determines how long the gate remains open after the signal drops below the threshold level. Release (10 to 1000 ms or Auto mode) Sets the time after which the gate closes after the set Hold time. If Auto Release is activated, the plug-in automatically finds the best release setting for the audio material.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Limiter Filter Type (Low-Pass/Band-Pass/High-Pass) If Side-Chain is activated, these buttons allow you to set the filter type to low-pass, band-pass, or high-pass. Limiter Limiter is designed to ensure that the output level never exceeds a set output level, to avoid clipping in following devices. Limiter can adjust and optimize the Release parameter automatically according to the audio material, or it can be set manually.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins Lin One Dither Lin One Dither Lin One Dither is a dithering plug-in that uses advanced algorithms and offers additional noise shaping to increase the apparent signal-to-noise ratio by altering the spectrum of the low-level audio signal.

The delay line uses tempo-based or freely specified delay time settings. Lo Filter Affects the feedback loop of the effect signal and allows you to roll off low frequencies. The button below the control activates/deactivates the filter. Hi Filter Affects the feedback loop of the effect signal and allows you to roll off high frequencies.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins REVerence REVerence REVerence is a convolution tool that allows you to apply room characteristics (reverb) to the audio. This is done by processing the audio signal according to an impulse response – a recording of an impulse in a room or another location that recreates the characteristics of the room. As a result, the processed audio sounds as if it were played in the same location.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins REVerence Import Click this button to load your own impulse response files from disk. The files should have a maximum length of 10 seconds. Longer files are automatically cut. Program slots Use these slots to load all the impulse responses that you want to work with in a session. The selected program slot is indicated by a white frame. Used slots are shown in blue. A red program slot indicates that the impulse response file is missing.

Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins REVerence RESULT The program slot turns blue, indicating that a program is loaded. NOTE When saving a program, the impulse response file itself is only referenced. It still resides in the same location as before and is not modified in any way. AFTER COMPLETING THIS TASK Repeat these steps for any impulse response files that you want to work with. Reading Order of Input Channels REVerence reads input channels in the following order.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins REVerence Channel The signal from this source… …was recorded with this microphone RR right source right microphone REVerence automatically works in true-stereo mode if you load a 4-channel impulse response. Therefore, if you are working with surround files, that is, 4-channel impulse responses recorded with a Quadro configuration (L/R, LS/RS), these files would be processed in true-stereo mode, too.
Included VST Audio Effect Plug-ins RoomWorks SE IMPORTANT The new path to these audio files has not been saved yet. To make the files permanently available without having to use the locate dialog, you need to save your programs or presets under a different name.
