5 - Effects Cor e Effects Descriptions 64 Creative Professional Auto-W ah This effect creates the sound of a guitar wah-w ah pedal. The “W ah” filter sw eep is automatically triggered from the amplitude envelope of the input sound. A uto-wah works w ell with percussive sounds such as guitar or bass .
5 - Effects Cor e Effects Descriptions E-MU Digital Audio System 65 Chorus An audio delay in the range of 15-2 0 milliseconds is too short to be an echo, but is perceived b y the ear as a distinctly separate sound. If we no w vary the dela y time in this range , an effect called chorus is created, which gives the illusion of multiple sound sources.
5 - Effects Cor e Effects Descriptions 66 Creative Professional Basic Contr ols The three main controls of a compressor are the R atio control, the Thr eshold control and the Gain control. If the signal falls below the Thresh old , no processing will take place .

5 - Effects Cor e Effects Descriptions 68 Creative Professional Flanger A flanger is a very short dela y line whose output is mixed back together with the original sound. Mixing the original and delayed signals results in multiple frequency cancella- tions known as a comb filter .
5 - Effects Cor e Effects Descriptions E-MU Digital Audio System 69 Fr eq Shifter This unusual effect is sometimes called “spectrum shifting” or “single sideband modulation” . Frequency shifting shifts every frequency in the signal by a fixed number of Hz which causes the harmonics to lose their normal relationship.
