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.

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.

Effect Settings

Window Size

Larger window size gives better frequency resolution but more smearing of transients. This parameter is thus a compromise between time resolution and frequency resolution. See section above for a more detailed discussion on how to choose the value for this parameter.

Default Value: 2,048
Range: 256 to 4,096
Units: Sample frames

Time Stretch

Percentage of original sound duration. 100% corresponds to no time stretch while 200% is twice as long. Similarly time compression is possible using 50% to get the sound at half the duration. This value supports RTPC and may be smoothly changed during playback without additional artefacts.

Default Value: 100
Range: 25 to 1,600
Units: % of original duration

Time Stretch Random

Offsets the time stretch factor specified by a random amount up to plus or minus the time stretch random value. This will be effective for the whole duration of the voice on which the time stretch will be applied. RTPC received during the playback will be considered only on the next playback.

Default Value: 0
Range: 0 to 200
Units: % of original duration

Output gain

The amount of gain applied to the output signal after the dynamic compression that makes up for potential gain losses.

Default Value: 0
Range: -24 to 24
Units: dB
