You can use the Exciter to add life to recordings. It is especially well suited to audio tracks
with a weak treble frequency range. The Exciter is also useful as a general tool for
enhancing guitar tracks.
• Frequency display: Shows the frequency range used as the source signal for the excite
process.
• Frequency slider and field: Sets the cutoff frequency (in Hertz) of the highpass filter. The
input signal passes through the filter before (harmonic) distortion is introduced.
• Input button: When the Input button is active, the original (pre-effect) signal is mixed
with the effect signal. If you disable Input, only the effect signal is heard.
• Harmonics knob and field: Sets the ratio between the effect and original signals,
expressed as a percentage. If the Input button is turned off, this parameter has no
effect.
Note: In most cases, higher Frequency and Harmonics values are preferable, because
human ears cannot easily distinguish between the artificial and original high frequencies.
• Color 1 and Color 2 buttons: Color 1 generates a less dense harmonic distortion spectrum.
Color 2 generates a more intense harmonic distortion. Color 2 also introduces more
(unwanted) intermodulation distortions.
Grooveshifter
The Grooveshifter allows you to rhythmically vary audio recordings, imparting a swing
feel to the input signal. Imagine a guitar solo played in straight eighth or sixteenth notes.
The Grooveshifter can make this straightforward solo swing.
The reference tempo is the project tempo. The Grooveshifter automatically follows all
changes to the project tempo.
