Clip Indicator This indicator indicates whether
clipping has occurred on output. It is a clip-hold
indicator. If clipping occurs at any time, the clip
light will remain on. To clear the Clip indicator,
click it. Long delay times and high feedback
times increase the likelihood of clipping.
Mix This control adjusts the ratio of dry signal to
effected signal in the output. In general, this
control should be set to 100% wet, unless you are
using the Pitch plug-in in-line on an Insert for
an individual track or element in a mix. This
control can be adjusted over its entire range
with little or no change in output level.
Delay This control sets the delay time between
the original signal and the pitch-shifted signal.
It has a maximum setting of 125 milliseconds.
You can use the Delay control in conjunction
with the Feedback control to generate a single
pitch-shifted echo, or a series of echoes that
climb in pitch.
Feedback This control controls the amount and
type of feedback (positive or negative) applied
from the output of the delay portion of the Pitch
plug-in back into its input. It also controls the
number of repetitions of the delayed signal. You
can use it to produce effects that spiral up or
down in pitch, with each successive echo shifted
in pitch.
Coarse This control adjusts the pitch of a signal
in semitones over a two octave range. Pitch
changes are indicated both in the Semitones
field and in the Musical Staff section below this
slider. Using the –8va and +8va buttons in con-
junction with the Coarse slider provides a full 4-
octave range of adjustment.
–8va and +8va Buttons Clicking the –8va button
adjusts pitch down one octave from the current
setting of the coarse and fine pitch controls.
Clicking the +8va button adjusts pitch up one
octave from the current setting of the coarse and
fine pitch controls.
Relative Pitch Entry (Musical
Staff)
Clicking on any note on this musical staff selects
a relative pitch transposition value that will be
applied to an audio signal. If the C above middle
C is illuminated (the staff is in treble clef), it in-
dicates that no pitch transposition has been se-
lected. If a pitch transposition is selected, the
note interval corresponding to the selected
transposition value is indicated in yellow. Alt-
clicking (Windows) or Option-clicking (Mac) on
the staff will set the coarse pitch change value to
zero.
Fine This control controls the pitch of a signal in
cents (hundredths of a semitone) over a 100 cent
range. The range of this slider is –49 to +50
cents. Precise pitch change values are indicated
in the Fine field. The flat, natural, and sharp
signs below this slider indicate deviation from
the nearest semitone.
Ratio This control indicates the ratio of transpo-
sition between the original pitch and the se-
lected transposition value.
