What Are ADD-ON EFFECTS?

ADD-ON EFFECTS are software packages that let you add on and use high level effect programs in your

digital console or similar device.

What is Auto Doppler?

Auto Doppler is one of the effects programs that can be used with ADD-ON EFFECTS.

It simulates a Doppler effect as a sound source is moved.

The volume, orientation, and pitch will change according to settings you make for the path and speed of the sound source.

What is the Interactive Spatial Sound Processor (iSSP)?

iSSP is a technology that combines a geometric sound simulator that attenuates sound according to an

estimate of the sound reﬂection that accompanies the shape of a room, taking into consideration the

direction of the sound source and the room's surface materials with multi-channel signal processor

technology that uses information about the position of the sound source to perform distance attenuation

based on the balance and delay/ﬁlter for each output channel.

This iSSP technology is used in Auto Doppler.

1 Position View In Auto Doppler, the listening point is the center point in this view, and is displayed in purple. The path of the sound source is displayed as a curve. 6 1 2 4 5 3 2 1 4 3 7 1 Path Path Movement Curve Orientation Curve Steepness In the Auto Doppler window, you can move the path by using the mouse to drag the control handle the center of the path line, or by holding down the button on the mouse and pressing the arrow keys on the keyboard.

4 End Point (E) This is the stop position for sound source movement. The end point is not edited directly. Instead it is determined by the time difference between the Transit and End, along with the Speed. 5 Sound Source Position The current position of the sound source is displayed in green. It is not displayed while offline because automation is impossible then. 6 Transit Point Value Display The direction and distance from the listening point to the transit point are displayed as numbers.

5 DISTANCE [DISTANCE] Slider/[DISTANCE] Knob Adjusts the strength of attenuation in volume caused by distance. The actual distance during movement is determined by the SPEED and time. The PITCH is also linked to this. By changing the value for DISTANCE, you can adjust the difference in volume between when the sound source is near or far away, without varying the PITCH. DISTANCE Display Displays the amount of distance, which indicates the strength of volume attenuation.

8 SURROUND MODE SURROUND MODE Display When the surround mode is 6.1, “6.1” is displayed. “3-1” is displayed for 3-1 surround, and “5.1” is displayed for all others. [DIV] Knob/[DIV F] Knob Sets right and left for the front center signal, along with the percentage sent to the center channel. When the surround mode in the Auto Doppler window is 6.1, [DIV.F] is displayed. For all others, [DIV] is displayed. [DIV.F] is always displayed in the Generic Editor window and console.

) AUTOMATION START TIMECODE, [S] Button Sets the Timecode for the Start Point. Automation starts at the time of the Timecode value set here. The setting can be changed by double clicking the time display and typing in a value from the keyboard. The value can also be changed by dragging the mouse up and down. Pressing the [S] button on the left side sets it to the Timecode value displayed for the CURRENT TIME. This [S] button is disabled if it is in offline mode or the Clock Reference setting is MIDI Clock.
