Envelope Follower
The Envelope Follower traces the input signal with an adjustable attack and release
time and delivers a modulation signal representing the level envelope of the signal.
Sensitivity
All input signals are mixed down to mono before they are sent to the Envelope
Follower. The Sensitivity parameter sets the optimum input level for the Envelope
Follower.
Attack
This adjusts the attack time, that is, the time the Envelope Follower needs to approach
increasing input levels.
Release
This adjusts the release time, that is, the time the Envelope Follower needs to approach
decreasing input levels.
Depth
Determines the output level of the modulation signal of the Envelope Follower.
Frequency Shifter
A frequency shifter shifts each frequency of the input signal by a xed amount.
Unlike pitch shifters, where the frequencies are shifted by a factor, and where the harmonic
relations are kept, a frequency shifter alters the harmonic relations. Therefore, a larger
frequency shift usually results in a disharmonic sound.
Furthermore, a frequency shifter alters the frequencies by adding an offset, while a pitch shifter
multiplies the frequencies by a factor. The frequency shifter alters lower frequencies more than
higher frequencies.
For example, if the input signal has the frequencies 100 Hz, 1000 Hz, and 10000 Hz, and you shift
the frequency by +100 Hz, the resulting frequencies are 200 Hz, 1100 Hz, and 10100 Hz.
Freq Coarse
Here you set the amount of frequency shift.
Freq Fine
Here you can ne adjust the amount of frequency shift.
L/R Coarse
Sets an offset for the left and right channels.
●
Positive values shift the right channel upwards and the left channel downwards.
●
Negative values shift the left channel upwards and the right channel downwards.
L/R Fine
Allows for ne-adjustments of the offset between the left and right channels.
●
Positive values shift the right channel upwards and the left channel downwards.
●
Negative values shift the left channel upwards and the right channel downwards.
