about a factor 2 to a factor 10.
Input Gain - the input gain works by scaling the graph representing the audio-input. While the scaling
will not affect trig decay or sensitivity, it will affect how the trigs are found with regards to the noise
threshold level.
Using the Equalizer
The audio analyzer also implements a 16-band equalizer that may be used to enhance or dampen
certain frequency ranges of the sound spectrum. Enhancing certain frequency ranges means these
ranges will be enhanced in the final sound input for the analyzer - for example enhancing the 3 lowest
bands will ensure that the input that is analyzed is very dominated by bass information in the music.
Note that the equalizer routines contain a lot of calculations and are VERY CPU insensitive. For this
reason running the sound analyzer on a low spec PC is not recommended since it will slow anything
else down including the rest of LightJockey. Minimum recommended PC for using the equalizer is a
Pentium 300 MHz or equivalent.
Analyzer menu

Pass key presses to LightJockey - Pass any key presses to LightJockey; this allows the use of LJ
hotkeys even if the Audio Analyzer has Windows focus.
Trigger menu
Use Equalizer - enables the equalizer, see using audio-in.
Set default -> Equalizer or Gain - re-sets levels to default for Equalizer and Gain.
Noise level - > Low, Medium and High - sets the range of the noise threshold.
View Menu
Run minimized - when launched the analyzer will minimize and not take up space on the desktop. To
restore click the ljsound button on the windows taskbar.
Stay on Top - when checked the analyzer stays on top of most other forms even when another
window gets the focus.
Show Input -> None, Real-time or Time-Line - set to disable the graph or shows the graph as real
time or time line.
Trigger Faders - shows or hides the adjustment drag bars.
Sound Cards - shows or hides sound device selector.
