CHAPTER FIVE
The “Effects” Options
The Effects options affect only the segment of the currently
selected window that you have highlighted by clicking and
dragging.
*
Note:
When working with stereo files, you can select
the channel on which you want the effects to take place
with the
Effects Channel
option in the Setup Menu.
You're given the options
Display Channel,
and
Both
Channels.
You can, for example, echo Channel 1 while
Channel 2 remains unaffected.
The Effects Channel option cannot be selected when
working with a mono file. In mono files, all effects will
affect the single mono channel.
A m p l i f y . . .
First select the segment you want to amplify. Then select this
option from the menu. A window will appear allowing you to
select the percent of amplification (200% is twice as loud).
*
Note:
When you increase the amplitude you also
increase the level of noise you have recorded. For the
cleanest sound, make sure that your recording levels are
set high enough to capture the sound but not high
enough to dip the sound. See
Trouble Shooting
in the
Appendices.
Backwards
The selected segment will be flip-flopped. This is your chance to
hear for yourself if there are any secret messages backwards-
masked into Rock-and-Roll songs. Play your own voice
backwards. Who knows? Maybe you, yourself, are sending out
messages so subtle you didn’t even notice.
E c h o . . .
A window will appear allowing you to set the
Echo
Amplification
and the
Echo
Interval.
