Sony 7 manual Envelope tab controls

Quality/speed

The Quality/Speed slider allows you to strike a balance between the quality and speed of the audio processing. Lowering this value immediately affects the frequency response of the impulse. The processed signal sounds dull and high frequencies sound unnatural. At very low values, the length of the impulse is shortened. When this control is set to a high value, the audio quality is excellent, but the processing takes longer.

If you are experiencing difficulty previewing processing in real-time, decrease the Quality/speed value. However, you must return this value to 5 prior to actually processing the file to output the highest possible quality.

Envelope tab controls

The following sections describe all controls located on the Envelope tab.

Envelope tab

Impulse

This control is identical to the Impulse drop-down list on the General tab. This allows you to view the envelope graphs for the specified impulse file. For more information, see Impulse on page 185.

Dry Out

This control is identical to the Dry Out fader on the General tab. For more information, see Dry Out on page 185.

Wet Out

This control is identical to the Wet Out fader on the General tab. For more information, see Wet Out on page 185.

Apply envelope and limit decay

This control is identical to the Apply envelope and limit decay check box on the General tab. For more information, see Apply envelope and limit decay to (seconds) on page 185.

Envelope Graph

Selecting the Apply envelope and limit decay check box turns on the Envelope Graph. You can use the envelope graph to decrease the length of the specified impulse file, which consequently decreases the reverberation decay time and processing time. You can also use the envelope graph to apply fades to the specified impulse file.
