USAGE INSTRUCTIONS – FRONT PANEL
SPEAKER POSITION
The green speaker represents the source of the audio. It can rotate around the listener, and move further or
closer to the listener.
Changing the
Angle
knob will rotate the speaker through 360°. Alternatively, grab the speaker on the display
with the mouse and move it around the centre position.
Increasing the
Distance
knob will move the speaker further from the centre. Alternatively, grab the speaker
with the mouse and move it further from the centre. This increases audio delay (due to the speed of sound),
and reduces audio volume. Distance can range from 2 to 100 metres.
Distance Attenuation
controls how much the volume is reduced due to being moved further from the listener.
At 100% it will give a realistic attenuation, at 0% it will not reduce the volume for any distance.
The
Zoom
slider zooms the centre display in and out. At minimum zoom, the display represents 100 metre
radius, at maximum zoom it only shows 10 metre radius.
SPEAKER ELEVATION
The
Elevation
control adjusts the height of the speaker above or below the listener. It ranges from -45° to
+45°.
FEEDBACK
The
Feedback
knob allows a percentage of the delayed audio to be fed back into the source to create simple
echo effects. Note that the audio is tapped before 3D algorithms.
DRY – WET
The
Dry – Wet
knob controls the mix of original and 3D audio. This can be useful for creating echo effects
where you want the audio to appear to bounce of a nearby object – in this case you would hear both the
original audio, and a delayed version of that audio from a point in 3D space.
