Signal Path
Crusher
The RMV’s Crusher is a distortion effect that combines bit-depth and sample-rate
reduction with “smoothing” algorithms allowing the resolution of the signal to be
decreased, thereby making the sound rougher and noisier. This effect processor also
includes a filter.
This effect has the following controls:
Wet: The Wet control is used to set the balance between the processed
"wet" signal (that is, the “crushed” signal) and the original
unprocessed "dry" signal.
Bits: The Bits control enables you to reduce the bit depth of the output
signal from oo bits (the signal is not changed) to 1.00 bits. Reducing
the bit depth adds a harsh, noisy quality to the sound.
Cut: The Cut (Cutoff) control is used to set the frequency (in Hz) above
which frequencies are filtered out of the signal. Higher settings
produce brighter sounds while lower settings result in darker sounds.
Reso: The Reso (Resonance) control is used to set the amount of
emphasis around the cutoff frequency. Higher settings create a more
pronounced peak in the signal while lower settings produce a flatter
response.
Div: The Divider control is used to set the value of a sample-rate divider
that divides the current sample-rate by the current control setting. For
example, if the current sample-rate is 44.1 kHz, then setting the
Divider control to 2, halves the sample-rate, making it equal to 22.05
kHz. When the Divider control is set to a value other than 1, a new
output sample value must be created for each group of samples in
the input audio stream. For example, if the Divider slider is set to a
value of 4, then four (possibly different) samples in the input stream
are replaced by four samples with a single value in the output audio
stream.
