Adjusting the HiPass control will cut low frequencies from the delayed signal.
The Dry/Wet control adjusts the balance between the processed and dry signals. Set it to
100 percent if using Flanger in a return track.
Hi-Quality mode can be toggled on or off via a
(PC) /
Ctrl
(Mac) context menu
entry. Enabling Hi-Quality results in a brighter sound, but there is a very slight increase in
CPU usage.

Frequency Shifter
The Frequency Shifter
Effect.
The Frequency Shifter moves the frequencies of incoming audio up or down by a user-
speci ed amount in Hertz. Small amounts of shift can result in subtle tremolo or phasing
effects, while large shifts can create dissonant, metallic sounds.
The Coarse and Fine knobs set the amount of shift that will be applied to the input. For
example, if the input is a sine wave at 440 Hz and the frequency is set to 100 Hz, the output
will be a sine wave at 540 Hz.
By changing the Mode from Shift to Ring, Frequency Shifter switches from classical frequency
shifting to
ring modulation.
In Ring mode, the selected frequency amount is added to
and
subtracted from the input. For example, if the incoming audio signal (A) is a sine wave at
440 Hz and the Frequency is set to 100 Hz (B), the output will contain partials at 340 Hz (A-B)
and 540 Hz (A+B).
