Generalities

• Choose Processing/Process Treatments to process the whole signal.

• Select a specific part of the signal and choose Process Selection to process this selection only. The resulting file will correspond to this selection. If no selection was made, the menu will not be activated. Note that a selection can be processed even if no treatment is included in the selection.

At least one treatment must have been added in the AS window to have these menus activated.

The dialogue window has several components, or sections :

• FFT settings, that determine the quality and efficiency of the signal analysis.

• Synthesis settings

• Envelope, Transient and Waveform preservation parameters : these parameters relate to analysis as well as to synthesis.

• Output format and options

• Settings

The FFT has been thoroughly discussed in a dedicated section. Refer it for more information.

A number of processing settings are embedded in AS. User settings can also be saved as persistent files and loaded on demand. Settings are organized in

• Factory Settings : standard settings.

• Monophonic vocal or non vocal sounds with or without transients

• Polyphonic sounds, with or without transients

• Woodwinds and brass : note that some options, like transients preservation can be activated or not, depending on the settingThese options can be managed independently from the chosen setting.
