TASCAM SX-1
Reference Manual
Tascam Exciter (Stereo)
Use this plugin to add extra high-frequency punch to
your tracks. It is especially useful for improving the
clarity of poorly recorded vocals.
SENSE
This control determines how often the
exciter effect will occur.
FREQUENCY
This control defines the frequency
above which exciting occurs.
Tascam/Nemesys HD1 Dither
This plugin is for changing and enhancing the resolu-
tion of digital recordings. Its dithering algorithm
boasts an extremely flat, low-noise spectrum. Use it
to convert bit resolutions, to dither, and to truncate.
TIP
This plugin is best used post-fader (either on inserts or
busses), as the last processor in a signal chain. If it is
placed in a position where DSP processing happens
afterwards, you lose the bit resolution effect.
Bit Depth
Select the bit depth you want to convert
to in this field (16, 18, 20, or 24).
Type
In this field there are three choices:
HD1
,
Truncate
, or
Bypass
.
HD1
This setting uses the TASCAM/Nemesys high-
definition dithering algorithm to improve the low
amplitude fidelity of your digital signal.
Truncate
This setting cuts off the least significant
bits in your digital recording. This might prove use-
ful when using the
Bypass
key to compare sound qual-
ity between 24-bit versions and 16-bit versions of
your mix.
Bypass
Select bypass to bypass the effect.
