Using Warbler
Using the controls
Knobs
Basic use of the knobs is to click on them and drag the mouse up and down.
However you can obtain different results by holding keys as follows:
•
Shift : Values change more slowly as you move the mouse.
•
(Mac OS X)/Alt (Windows) : The knob assumes its default
position.
•
Option
(Mac OS X)/Control (Windows): The knob assumes integer val-
ues only.
Value edit boxes
These boxes (below each knob) let you enter parameter values directly. Clicking on the
value highlights it in green - you can then type the desired value using the keyboard. Press
enter to finish and accept the new value.
While you’re typing the value, the box goes red to indicate that the value you see has not
yet been accepted.
Name/value display
As you move the mouse around the interface, the name
and current value of the control currently under the
mouse is displayed in the top right of the window. This
area also provides tooltips for buttons.
Basic usage
You’ll find audio samples demonstrating the effects below on the Expert Sleepers website.
Vibrato effects
When you first load Warbler, its default settings give a simple vibrato effect. The speed of
the vibrato is set by the 3 speed knobs, and its depth is set by the 2 depth knobs. For nor-
mal vibrato, the range of the second speed knob (‘Fine’) and the first depth knob (‘Fine’)
are most appropriate.
