Spectrum EQ
The equalizer is a new and very powerful feature introduced in vsound version 2.5. It allows the
frequency response to be modified with exceptional precision using an interactive tool, instantly
generating a new impulse response that can then be saved or downloaded to the pedal in the usual
manner.
The newly equalised IR introduces no latency in the modified impulse response.
To use the editor, simply select a region of the frequency response you wish to change by holding
down the left mouse button, dragging and then releasing. Now using the mouse wheel, roll it forwards
or backward to increase or decrease the gain of the highlighted region (if you are using the mouse
pad, use a two-finger swipe, up or down).
If you want to EQ a very small region, then zoom in the normal way, select a region within this, and
EQ as before.
Important:
the gain of the EQ’d region will change in steps given by the text box labelled “Gain inc.,
dB:”, in the Response Control window.
By default, this is set to 1 dB, but you can change it to anything
you like. Take care when using large steps.
Note how the IR changes as you roll the mouse wheel or swipe with the mouse pad.
Also important: instead of using the mouse wheel or pad, you can simply click the button labelled
“EQ”
in the Response Control window.
