Trish and Chris Meyer provide tips about audio effects on the
Backwards effect
The Backwards effect reverses the audio of a layer by playing the audio from the last frame to the first frame. The frames remain in their original
order in the Timeline panel. Select Swap Channels to swap left and right channels.
Harry Frank and Aharon Rabinowitz provide a video tutorial on the
Reverb effect to create a creepy reverse echo result.
Bass & Treble effect
The Bass & Treble effect boosts (increases) or cuts (decreases) the low frequencies (bass) or the high frequencies (treble) of the audio. For
greater control, use the Parametric EQ effect.
Delay effect
The Delay effect repeats audio after a specified amount of time. This effect simulates sound bouncing off a surface, such as a wall.
To simulate the acoustic ambience of a room, use the Reverb effect.
Time between the original sound and its echo, in milliseconds.
