196 Chapter 9 Working With Audio Effects

Processing Effects

You can apply processing effects to an audio file project. The Process menu includes

an Effects submenu where you choose processing effects to add to your project.

Processing effects are added as actions, which you can turn on or off, reorder, and

adjust in the Actions list.

For information about working with processing effects in the Waveform Editor, see

“Working With Processing Effects” on page 216. For information on working with

actions, see “Working With Actions” on page 170.

Audio Effects Included With Soundtrack Pro

Soundtrack Pro includes the following types of audio effects:

Â Dynamics: Dynamics effects let you shape the volume of your projects over time.

Bundled dynamics effects include Compressor, Multipressor, Adaptive Limiter, and

Noise Gate.

Â Distortion: Distortion effects change the tone of the audio signal to recreate the

sound of overdriven tube amplifiers or digital distortion. Bundled distortion effects

include Bitcrusher, Clip Distortion, Distortion, Exciter, and Phase Distortion.

Â EQ and Filter: EQ (short for equalization) effects let you change the level of selected

frequencies. EQ provides a powerful way of shaping the sound of your projects.

Bundled EQ effects include High Cut and Low Cut, High Pass and Low Pass filters,

Channel EQ, Linear Phase EQ, Match EQ, and Parametric EQ.

Â Modulation: Modulation effects delay an audio signal and shift (modulate) when the

delayed signal plays back relative to the original signal. Bundled modulation effects

include Chorus, Flanger, Modulation Delay, Phaser, Scanner Vibrato, and Tremolo.

Â Reverb and Delay: Reverb effects can be used to simulate the sound of acoustic

spaces, both realistic and unnatural. Delay effects can be used to add echoes and

other recurring sounds. Bundled reverb and delay effects include PlatinumVerb,

Soundtrack Pro Reverb, Stereo Delay, Tape Delay, and Space Designer, a powerful tool

for sound design.

Â Meters and Diagnostic: You can use realtime diagnostic effects to clean up audio files

in a variety of ways, including pitch, intensity, and phase problems. Bundled

diagnostic effects include Correlation Meter, MultiMeter, Test Oscillator, and Tuner.

These are only available as realtime effects, not processing effects.

Â Miscellaneous: Miscellaneous effects fall outside the other categories, providing

additional ways to modify your audio. Bundled miscellaneous effects include

Denoise, PitchShifter, Spectral Gate, Stereo Spread, SubBass, and Vocal Transformer.
