Envelope Mode Buttons
Clicking on these buttons will switch to the selected envelope mode. The Envelope
window display will adjust accordingly, with the selected envelope being topped in the
superimposed display. The other envelope curves are shown as transparencies in the
background.
The Volume Envelope is shown in red.
The Filter Envelope is shown in yellow (the Filter needs to be switched on).
The Density Envelope is shown in light blue (Synthesized IR only).
Note: You can also switch between envelope modes via the pull-down menu to the left
of the horizontal parameter panel below the Envelope window.
Please note that use of the word mode here is designed to simplify your
understanding. Obviously, the Space Designer displays, and uses, up to three discrete
envelopes simultaneously.
Reverse
A single click on this button reverses the Impulse Response together with its envelopes,
allowing easy creation of reversed reverb effects, and also some unusual sound
processing options. A second click undoes the reverse.
When you reverse the Impulse Response, you are effectively using the tail rather than
the front end of the sample. As such, you may need to use lower or even negative Pre-
Delay values when reversing.
Zoom to Fit/A and D Buttons
The parameter name effectively describes what it does. It zooms in on the Impulse
Response waveform to make use of the entire Envelope window, in doing so the
display will follow any envelope length changes.
Zoom is directly tied to the current envelope mode, so the Zoom to Fit appearance will
be different dependent on the currently active envelope viewing mode.
