Toolbox Menu

The Toolbox menu contains several items that perform simple signal processing functions such as scaling (Scale, Maximize) and reversing (Reverse) a signal as well as adding, subtracting and mixing two signals (Add, Subtract , Mix). The Split and Unite commands can be used to separate two channels of a stereo soundfile and to combine two mono tracks into a stereo soundfile, respectively. You can convert a mono soundfile into a stereo one and vice versa (Convert to mono, Convert to stereo). Some more complex functions are also included, such as intelligent cutting and muting of unwanted audio material (Smart mute, Smart cut, Crossfade cut), equalization (Equalize), filtering (Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass, Bandstop and Notch), fading (Fade in, Fade out, Crossfade), file length and sample rate adjustment (Resample, Change speed, Adjust RPM rate, Trim length, CD format), duration and pitch modification (Speed up/Slow down, Shift pitch), automatic detection of constant noise/signal patterns (Find pattern), spectral analysis (Spectrum, Spectral view), partitioning long recordings by means of detecting silences (Unpack), elimination of the lead vocalist’s performance from a stereophonic recording (DeVocalize) and simulation of the acoustics of different environments (Reverb). Finally, the DirectX command provides access to all DirectX Audio Plug-Ins installed on your computer:

If a block of samples is chosen, some DART XP Pro tools will operate locally, i.e. in the selected area only. If no block is marked, most functions are global, i.e. the entire signal is processed.

NOTICE

For registered soundfiles all operations involving the equalizer, filters and fades (fade in/out) are managed by the Soundfile Manager and documented in the corresponding DART XP Pro info files.
