Normalizer and Amplifier
Both the Normalizer and Amplifier apply similar effects in that they adjust
the gain across the audio sample or region. Normalizer gain will be based
on the level setting where 100% will maximize the audio level across an
entire sample by using the highest peak point as reference. This is a typical
normalised application. Think of the Amplifier as a multiplier of the audio
gain where 1 would be the current state and numbers below 1 will attenuate
and above 1 will boost. Amplified audio can exceed the normal range
Normalizer Amplifier
Gain adjustment based on the 0-100% Level Gain is based on the 0.01 - 5 amplification range

Crop and Reverse
Both the crop and reverse functions apply an immediate edit to the selected
or the entire audio sample. Reverse simply reverses the audio playback
direction while crop will trim and discard the audio outside of the start / end
markers. Zoom may help focus on more precise marker setting locations.

NOTES
Overdrive and Bitcrusher
Overdrive is a classic distortion effect based on driving the analog audio
signal into an amplifier hard. This gives a grungy, edge to the sound or full
on distortion. Given the aggressive nature of overdrive the gain adjustment
is a welcome feature. Bit crushing is a process which also gives a distortion
like effect and is based on lowering the digital quality down from a standard
16bit, 44.1kHz and introduces a LoFi style sound.
Overdrive
Three overdrive types are available.
Gain control from 0.01 to 5.000.

Delay and Chorus
The classic time based effects include delay and chorus. Delay creates an
echo by delaying the audio signal and feeding back into the input. Chorus is
similar to delay in that instead of feeding back it layers slightly delayed
versions of the signal creating a thicker, wider sound.
Delay
Delay time 50ms to 5000 ms.
Feedback from 1% - 95%.
