Remove DC offset
This function can only be opened via the "effects" menu and can thus only be applied to selected objects
. This can be useful if your sound card overlays your sample with a constant DC offset during recording,
which leads to crackling during playback or editing. (This is basically always the case with recordings that
use the integrated sound card of your PC).
Options:
Here you can enter a minimum DC offset threshold, which indicates where DC offset removal will kick
in. You can also edit stereo channels together to reduce computing time.
Tempo/Resampling
This effect is only available as an object effect.
The fader lets you change the playback speed of objects
so that they are better aligned. The effect can be applied in two ways, either as resampling or as
timestretching. You can change the mode in the preset list at the very bottom.
Resampling mode can be used to change speed and pitch just like on a cassette. Use this mode
to adjust LP recordings made at the incorrect speed.
Timestretching mode applies a high-quality timestretching algorithm (universal HQ) to keep the
pitch constant in spite of speed changes. Use this mode to adjust the tempo of different tracks to
match each other without influencing the pitch, e.g. for a DJ mix.
The effect is also available as a mouse mode for changing the tempo across a larger range
of values.
Resampling for incorrect record speeds
If you want to record a record that was recorded at 78 rpm, then you normally have a problem: These
older shellac LPs aren't able to be played back by most turntables. With the help of this resampling
technology, it's possible to playback the record at the incorrect speed, record it, and then correct the
speed with a single click.
Different presets have been provided for this. The first number indicates the speed at which the record
was played back, and the second shows the speed that it should be played at. For example, if an older
78 rpm shellac record was played at 33 rpms, then you would use the "33/78" preset.
A second group of presets are for adjusting wave files with different sampling rates to the project. These
