Before we cover each module, we’d like to mention some general concepts shared across several or all modules.
Changing the order
The effect modules are processing the audio in series, from left to right. (The only exception being if you activate Post in the Boom Shack module). Boom Shack and More are always first and last in the effects chain, but you can change the order of the other four by clicking the top-left corner and dragging a module to its new location. Depending on your settings, this can yield significantly different results.
Visualizers
At the top of each module are the graphic visualizers. They are not meters per se, but do provide visual feedback to your current settings.
Target
Three of the effect modules — Shift, Saturate, and More — have Target controls. These modules can separate the incoming audio’s transients — short initial sound peaks — from its more sustained parts. When the Target control is at its center position, transients and sustained audio are treated equally. Moving the slider to the left — towards the spiky transient symbol — focuses the processing on the transient part of the incoming audio, leaving sustained sounds less affected. Moving it to the right has the opposite effect.
Focus
Four of the modules — Shift, Space, Saturate, and More — have Focus controls. This allows you to limit the frequency range processed by those modules. You adjust Focus by moving the arrows to make the affected range wider or narrower, or by clicking the selected area and dragging your mouse up/down. Click and drag to the left or right to move the selected range. It can, for example, be cool to keep the very low end unaffected, while shifting the rest of the beat.
