The included effect plug-ins
distant speakers. Note that MixerDelay has a wide range
(up to 1000 ms) and fine adjustments are best made by
numerically entering the delay time in centimeters for
speaker alignment.
Tools plug-ins
This section describes the plug-ins in the “Tools” category.
MultiScope (Cubase only)
MultiScope can be used for viewing the waveform, phase
linearity or frequency content of a signal. There are three
different modes:
• Oscilloscope (Ampl.)
• Phase Correlator (Scope)
• Frequency Spectrum Analyzer (Freq.)
Ö The Freeze button can be used to freeze the display in
all three modes. Click it again to exit freeze mode.
Oscilloscope mode (Ampl.)
• To view a signal waveform, open the MultiScope control
panel and make sure that the “Ampl.” button in the lower
left corner is lit.
• If the source signal is stereo you can now select either
the Left or Right channel for viewing, or Stereo for both
channels to be shown in the window. If it is a mono signal,
this does not matter.
• If MultiScope is used with a multi-channel track or out-
put bus, you can select any speaker channel for viewing,
or All Channels to view them all at once.
• You can now adjust the Amplitude knob to increase/
decrease the vertical size of the waveform, and the Fre
-
quency knob to select the frequency area for viewing.
Frequency Spectrum Analyzer mode (Freq.)
• Click the Freq button so that it lights up.
MultiScope now divides the frequency spectrum into separate vertical
bands, which allows you to get a visual overview of the different frequen
-
cies’ relative amplitude. The frequency bands are shown left to right,
starting with the lower frequencies.
• If the source signal is stereo you can now select either
the Left or Right channel for viewing, or Stereo for both
channels to be shown in the window. If it is a mono signal,
this does not matter.
• If MultiScope is used with a multi-channel track or out-
put bus, you can select any speaker channel for viewing,
or All Channels to view them all at once.
• Adjust the Amplitude knob to increase/decrease the
vertical range of the bands.
!
The MixerDelay is not a mixer – the number of out-
puts is the same as the number of inputs. If you need
to mix down a surround signal to stereo, use the
Mix6to2, Mix8to2 or MixConvert plug-ins.
