movement. This way you can quickly isolate and listen to each of the peaks
that occur regularly, to find out, for example, what consonants they
represent.
GainReductionIndicator
This red-shaded area gives a real-time indication of the shape and amount
of occurring gain reduction. The shape follows the slope indicators, and
roughly corresponds to the shape of the pink FFT region (see 7 above).
ThresholdLine
This line shows the current threshold level. The line will wander up and down
as the general signal level rises and falls (unless you have switched the
threshold to ‘Absolute’ mode). If you move the threshold line while there is
no signal or a silent signal present, you are setting the presumed level that
will occur when the signal returns. This will be indicated on the graph as a
dotted line (or ghost threshold line).
CentralFFT Peak
This holds for your attention that important frequency in the band window,
which has the peak energy. This will most likely indicate a consonant or
fricative that you may want to deal with. Clicking on this peak will then
centre the band filter to this frequency, and help to isolate it.
ZoomIn/Out
This allows you to zoom-in or zoom-out when clicking and dragging.
Additionally, you can use the jog/scroll wheel forward/backward to achieve
the same thing.
UsefulShortcuts
Jogwheel up/down or forward/backward to zoom in/out. Left/Right-Click
anywhere to centre the band filter to that point.
