| High-Low Cut PlugIn | Sound LaundryÖ 2.5 |
The parameter set-up interface is displayed in an intuitive graphical form.
You can easily change the cut-off frequency and slope of the high-cut and
low-cut filters by clicking and moving the white square on the proper
marker while holding down the left mouse button.
For the technically oriented user, both the cut-off frequency and the
slope for the current setting also appear in numerical form below the graphic
window. If you move the sliders with the mouse, you can get only a limited
resolution, e.g., your parameter increase every three unit (103, 106 ...).
However, if you use the numerical window you can enter the parameter exactly
(101.15). Directly click on the numeric field you want to change, enter the
intended value, and quit with return.
The range of the low-cut filter cut-off frequency extends from 20 Hz to 600 Hz, the range of the high-cut filter cut-off frequency from 700 Hz to 20 kHz. The slope is continuously adjustable for both filters in the range between 0 and 24 dB per octave.
The respective Flat button switches the low-cut and high-cut filters to a linear characteristic that does not affect the input signal. This function is recommended as a starting position before setting up a new filter characteristic.
For a detailed technical evaluation of the filter characteristics and their influence on the input signal, we recommend using the Analyzer PlugIn.
By setting the Analyzer to High-Low Cut in (red line), High-Low Cut out (green line), High-Low Cut (white line), and the upper limit of the amplitude scale to 0 dB, you can easily follow the effect of the high-low cut filtering on the processed audio material.
Dependent on sound material to be processed, the performance of the PEQ linearPhase PlugIn can be slightly modified using different settings for the parameters Time Resolution and Frequency Resolution. These are common for all frequency-domain PlugIns and therefore located in the DSP Quality window associated with the PlugIn StationÖ. The low-cut filter works best with a high value of time resolution. If your PC is too slow and can not accept higher settings of the time resolution parameter in real-time, you can use the offline mode in the final processing step.
