The Audio section of X-Form provides controls for specifying the type of audio you want to process and gain attenuation of the processed signal to avoid clipping.
The Audio Type determines the type of TCE and pitch shift algorithm for processing audio: Polyphonic, Monophonic, or Poly (Faster).
Use for processing complex sounds (such as a multipart musical selection).
Use for processing monophonic sounds (such as a vocal melody).
Use for faster previewing and processing, but with slightly reduced audio quality.
The Gain control attenuates the input level to avoid clipping. Adjust the Gain control from 0.0 dB to –6.0 dB to avoid clipping in the processed signal.
The Clip indicator indicates clipping in the processed signal. When using time compression or pitch shifts above the original pitch, it is possible for clipping to occur. The Clip indicator lights when the processed signal is clipping. If the processed signal clips, undo the AudioSuite process and attenuate the input gain using the Gain control. Then, re-process the selection.
The Level indicator displays the level of the output signal using a plasma LED, which uses the full range of plasma level metering colors.
