<h2>ACE EQ</h2>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
Equalizers are commonly used to shape the sound, change timbre of an
|
||||
instrument and generally help it sit better in a mix.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
ACE EQ is a simple 4-band equalizer with a low and a high shelves.
|
||||
All bands and shelves are optional and can be disabled by clicking on
|
||||
the outer border of respective parameters boxes.
|
||||
</p>
|
||||
<p>
|
||||
For each band it's possible to set the base frequency, the gain level,
|
||||
and the bandwidth. The latter defines how much frequencies around the base
|
||||
frequency are affected by the gain adjustment. In an example below, the first
|
||||
band has the narrowest bandwidth of 0.1, and the third band has the default
|
||||
banwidth of 1.0. While both bands have a gain of +10dB, the first one is very
|
||||
narrow, but the third one is wide enough so that changes begin affecting
|
||||
frequencies that belong to neighboring frequency bands.

||||

|

|
||||
<p>There are three ways to adjust both frequency, gain, and bandwidth:</p>
|
||||
|
||||
<ol>
|
||||
<li><p><strong>Directly on the diagram</strong>. Dragging the band mark
|
||||
(1 through 4) left and right changes the frequency, dragging it up and down
|
||||
changes the gain. Scrolling the mouse wheel over the band mark changes the
|
||||
bandwidth.</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li><p><strong>In the bottom parameters boxes</strong>. Scrolling the mouse
|
||||
wheel over a setting changes its value. This is also where and how the master
|
||||
output can be adjusted.</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
<li><p><strong>Numerically via the generic plugin UI</strong>. This user
|
||||
interface can be displayed by right-clicking on the plugin in the mixer
|
||||
channel and choosing the <em>Edit with generic controls…</em> option.</p>
|
||||
</li>
|
||||
</ol>
|
||||
|
||||
<p>ACE EQ also provides an inline display for mixer channels:</p>
