Signal Generator
The Signal Generator plug-in produces audio
test tones in a variety of frequencies, waveforms,
and amplitudes.
The features of this plug-in are non-real-time,
but otherwise identical to its real-time counter-
part.
To create an audio region using the Signal
Generator plug-in:
1 Make a selection in the Tracks window.
2 Choose AudioSuite > Signal Generator.
3 Enter values for the Frequency, Level, and Sig-
nal controls.
4 Click Process in the Signal Generator plug-in.
DC Offset Removal
The DC Offset Removal plug-in removes DC off-
set from audio files. DC offset is a type of audio
artifact (typically caused by miscalibrated ana-
log-to-digital convertors) that can cause pops
and clicks in edited material.
To check for DC offset, find a silent section in
the audio material. If DC offset is present, a
near-vertical fade-in with a constant or steady-
state offset from zero will appear in the wave-
form. Use the DC Offset Removal plug-in to re-
move it.
Signal Generator plug-in
You can use the AudioSuite Signal Genera-
tor plug-in for musical purposes as well as
for testing purposes. For example, you might
want to add a little color to a kick drum
track by doubling it with a 50 Hz tone, us-
ing the kick track as the key input signal
gating the tone track.
Select the Create Continuous File option for
greater flexibility in making audio selec-
tions for use with the Signal Generator plug-
in.
For information on the individual controls
for the Signal Generator plug-in, see “Signal
Generator” on page 91.
