The Fade In process sets a fade-in between the start point and end
point. The following types are available:
•
Linear fades the audio in with a linear curve—a straight line
between the start and end.
•
Log fades the audio in with a logarithmic curve—quickly rising
at the start and flattening out towards the end.
•
Exp fades the audio in with an exponential curve—slowly
rising in the beginning and growing steeper towards the end.
The Fade Out process sets a fade-out between the start point
and end point. The following types are available:
•
Linear fades the audio out with a linear curve—a straight line
between the start and end.
•
Log fades the audio out with a logarithmic curve—quickly
falling at the start and flattening out towards the end.
•
Exp fades the audio out with an exponential curve—slowly
falling in the beginning and growing steeper towards the end.
The Pitch Shift process changes the pitch of the sample without
changing its length. This lets you set the sample's pitch to your
project without affecting the sample's tempo or duration. You can
adjust it up to 12 semitones, up or down. Keep in mind that the audio
quality may decrease at more extreme settings.
The Time Stretch process lengthens or shortens the sample without
changing its pitch. This is useful for matching the durations of two
samples with different pitches. You can enter the original tempo of the
sample and the desired tempo after processing.
Use the Beat field to set the desired value number of beats.
Use the New Tempo field to set the new tempo. The Ratio field
will then automatically show the time stretch factor.
Alternatively, to adjust the ratio instead, use the Ratio field to set
the desired ratio. The New Tempo field will then change
automatically based on the new time stretch factor.
