Audio Effects Included with Soundtrack Pro
Soundtrack Pro includes the following types of audio effects:
 Dynamics: Dynamics effects let you shape the volume of your projects over time.
Bundled dynamics effects include Compressor, Multipressor, Adaptive Limiter, Noise
Gate, Expander, and Limiter.
 Distortion: Distortion effects change the tone of the audio signal to re-create the
sound of overdriven tube amplifiers or digital distortion. Bundled distortion effects
include Bitcrusher, Clip Distortion, Distortion, Distortion II, Exciter, Overdrive, and
Phase Distortion.
 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 AutoFilter, Fat EQ, High Cut and Low Cut, High Pass and
Low Pass filters, Channel EQ, High and Low Shelving EQ, Linear Phase EQ, Match EQ,
Parametric EQ, and Soundtrack Pro Autofilter.
 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, Ensemble, Flanger, Modulation Delay, Phaser, Scanner
Vibrato, and Tremolo.
 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.
 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.
 Miscellaneous: Miscellaneous effects fall outside the other categories, providing
additional ways to modify your audio. Bundled miscellaneous effects include Delay
Designer, Denoiser, Direction Mixer, Enveloper, Gain, Multichannel Gain,
PitchShifter II, Ringshifter, Spectral Gate, Stereo Spread, SubBass, Surround
