detected as longer duration. Then as you move the Sensitivity down, you will notice that
the smallest events disappear first, leaving the largest events.
The graph shows green bubbles (DePop), blue bubbles (DeClick) and white bubbles
(DeCrackle). The size of the bubbles indicates how loud they are, as does their height
above the horizontal axis. Each section has an IN button, and if you disable a section
using the IN button, their bubbles are displayed as Red, meaning these events have been
detected but not repaired.
Disabling the AdvancedView will remove any popup graphs such as the Excitation
Profiles to expand your view of the Events.
2.4 TheExcludeBox
The EventsGraph allows an important new feature to be implemented. The idea of the
exclude box is to stop over-corrections. For example, you may be happy with a piece of
music and the associated repairs, except for a section with brass instruments - at which
point too many high energy events are detected and corrected. Likewise, with dialogue
you sometimes find that the need for repairs diminishes as the dialogue becomes louder,
because the dialogue masks the clicks. Threshold and Sensitivity settings that work for
the background noise of the dialogue may be too sensitive when the dialogue is active
and loud. The graphic representation of the detected events makes this visually very
obvious, and can be further demonstrated by listening to the diff signal.
One way to remedy these situations is to use an ExcludeBox. Simply click the pointer in
the event graph area to create a box and drag it to where it needs to be to exclude the
repairs that were undesirable. Every event that occurs inside the box will not be repaired
and is displayed in red. You can drag the whole box or use the drag handles (left, right,
top, bottom) to re-position or re-size the box accurately.
