Using Meringue
Using the controls
Knobs
Basic use of the knobs is to click on them and drag the mouse up and down.
However you can obtain different results by holding keys as follows:
• Shift : Values change more slowly as you move the mouse.
• Command 1 (Mac OS X)/Alt (Windows) : The knob assumes its default
position.
Name/value display
As you move the mouse around the interface, the name
and current value of the control currently under the
mouse is displayed in the top right of the window. This
area also provides tooltips for buttons.
The controls in depth
Delay
These two knobs are the canonical delay controls - delay time (i.e. the
length of the delay buffer, in seconds) and feedback (the amount of
the delayed sound re-recorded into the buffer on the next pass).
Mix
‘Dry’ is the level of the original sound passed through the effect.
‘Effect’ is the level of the effected sound (i.e. the output of the delay).
Filter
The Filter section is where you control the
multi-mode filter, and the saturation effect.
The filter offers low-pass, band-pass and
high-pass options, which you select with the
‘Type’ knob. This knob is continuous; you
can select a blend between two filter types
rather than jumping from one to the other.
1 The ‘Command’ key is also known as the ‘Apple’ key - the one next to the spacebar.
