Please note: Switching off both L/M and R/S turns the Analyzer off.
Freeze
– Clicking the Freeze button stops the frequency graph. To release it and return to real-time graphing, click the button again, or click
any other Analyzer control.
Peak Hold
– Clicking Peak hold stops the frequency graph at its highest peak point, the maximum measured level.
Analyzer Scale
displays the energy level measured by the Analyzer.
Range
: 0–60
Please note: Complex waveforms will usually clip before the total energy on the analyzer reaches 0 because it displays peak clipping rather
than steady level reading. On sustained material or sine waves at 0 dBFS, the Analyzer will reach 0 when the actual signal reaches 0.
EQ Scale
displays the EQ curve being applied to the signal. You can click and drag the scale with the mouse to increase the resolution of the
curve graph; use this option when applying small amounts of EQ to your signal.
Range: +/-30 dB linear
Range Extended: +/- 30 dB (+/- 3 dB for first 2/3 of the scale)
Band Markers
allow you to
manipulate the EQ bands. Each marker corresponds to a certain band and is color coded.
The following keyboard shortcuts may be used to control Band Markers:
•
Option/Alt
– Hold Option (Alt) and click the marker to control Q; locks Frequency and Gain in place.
•
Control/Ctrl
– Hold, click, and drag the marker vertically to control Gain. Frequency and Q are locked in place.
Hold, click and drag the marker horizontally to control Frequency. Gain and Q are locked in place.
•
Command/Win
– Hold Command and Click the marker to toggle filter type.
•
Right Click
– Right-click on a band marker to solo the band you are adjusting.
To reduce DSP load, the Analyzer is not included in the H-EQ Lite component.
