7 High-pass lter
Cuts o unneeded low-band audio. The cuto frequency is 80 Hz.
7 Noise gate
Eliminates audio that is lower than the specied threshold level.
This is eective when the noise that you want to remove is separate
from the audio that you want to keep, and can be used to remove
hiss or other noise that is heard during periods of silence.
7 De-esser
Reduces sibilant noise (the sounds you hear when pronouncing “s”
words and other hissing sounds).
7 Compressor
Audio that exceeds the specied threshold level is compressed.
This reduces the dierence between the maximum volume and
minimum volume, making the audio more comfortable for listening.
7 Equalizer
This is a three-band equalizer. It lets you adjust the volume by
boosting or cutting three frequency regions.
7 Reverb
Adds reverberation to the sound.
Using an Eect Preset
This unit is equipped with eects that are adjusted for specic
environments. These are called “eect presets.”
Simply by selecting an eect preset, you can easily apply an eect
that’s appropriate for your situation.
