To enhance your sound, you might want to create effects that will influence frequency components of the audio signal. Using the Wwise Parametric EQ plug-in, you can apply a variety of filters to shape the spectrum of your sound.
The Wwise Parametric EQ plug-in contains a series of properties that you can use to create the Effects for your audio environment. Many of these properties can also be mapped to Game Parameters using RTPCs. In addition you have the flexibility of working in three frequency bands where you can apply different properties to each band.
Interface Element |
Description |
|||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Inclusion |
Determines whether the element is included or excluded. When selected, the element is included. When unselected, the element is not included. By default, this applies across all platforms. Use the Link indicator (to the left of the check box) to determine or to set platform-specific customizations. When this option is unselected, the property and behavior options in the Property Editor become unavailable. Default value: true |
|||||
Name |
The name of the Effect instance. Effect instances are a group of effect property settings. They can be one of two types: custom instances or ShareSets. Custom instances can be used by only one object, whereas ShareSets can be shared across several objects. |
|||||
Effect |
The type of effect. |
|||||
Shared by (Used by) |
A list of objects that currently subscribe to the selected ShareSet. This field is called “Used by” when editing a custom instance of the Effect. |
|||||
|
Opens a search field where standard alphanumeric entries filter out unmatching elements from the view. Learn more in Using Tables. Click the Close icon to the left of the search icon to close the search field and remove the filter.
|
|||||
|
Returns the Effect property settings to their default values. This option is only available when editing a custom instance of the Effect. |
|||||
Notes |
Additional information about the Effect. |
|||||
Enable Band |
Enables the set of filters that you can define. You have the option of enabling three different sets. Default value: true |
|||||
Curve |
The type of curve for the filter effect:
Default value: High Shelf |
|||||
Gain |
The amount of the amplification of the audio signal for the selected frequency band. Increasing this value “boosts” the audio signal. Decreasing this value “cuts” or attenuates the audio signal. The Gain controls are not available when the Low Pass, High Pass, Notch, and Band Pass curves have been selected because these filter types have their passband normalized at 0 dB. Default value: 0 |
|||||
Frequency |
The portion of the frequency spectrum that will be affected by the gain. Default value: 12000 |
|||||
Quality Factor |
The area around the center frequency that will be affected by the change in gain. A low Q value means that the bandwidth range will be wide, and conversely a high Q value means that the bandwidth range will be narrow. This control is not available when the Low Pass, High Pass, Low Shelf, and High Shelf curves have been selected. Default value: 1 |
|||||
Output Gain |
The overall output level of the Wwise Parametric EQ Effect. Default value: 0 |
|||||
Process LFE |
Determines whether the Effect is processed in the LFE channel or not. When selected, the Effect is processed in the LFE channel. When unselected, the LFE channel will be unaffected. Default value: true |
