Tone Control Extended Chart
This chart represents the influence of all bands on the frequency and phase response. The left axis shows the amplitude in dB, the right axis shows the phase in degrees and the X- axis shows the gain.
The number of Bands are defined with the Signal Flow Designer. The Bands get dynamically managed inside the GTT. Most of the Bands are represented by appropriate markers.
Markers
Markers are movable. Moving them allows you to amend the current Band parameters. Each marker corresponds to one or two Band parameters. For example, the equalizer shown below has three markers.
Band Settings
In the Band settings you can:
change the Frequency, Gain and Quality
Frequency is used to set the center frequency of each filter.
Gain is used to set the center frequency gain of each band of the filter. Not all filter types offer a variable gain.
Quality is used to set the width of each band pass or notch type band of the filter. Not all filter types offer a variable quality factor.
All available filters are added and default selection is set as All Pass 2 at panel startup.
The filter type doesn’t contain Bypass type
Band Curve Legend
- Panel preset is used to store the tuning parameter
- Ramp time is used to set the ramp characteristic of the object
Click on Curve Legend
This will display information of all the legends in the graph
In Tone Control Extended Panel, there is no channel selector since the band values are same across all the channels
Get LUT data
When a Tone Control Extended is connected to the LUT objects, the Tone Control Extended Panel displays the graph for the LUT data.
These graph are just for visualization, you cannot alter the graph values from the panel
Connect the LUT objects to Control pins of Tone Control Extended objects
Open LUT panel and set row, column name and values
Open Tone Control Extended panel and click “Get LUT data”
This will plot the graph for the LUT data
Fig: Displays the graph based on LUT data
If any one pin is not connected to LUT in a particular band, then corresponding tuning value will be used to plot curve
Curve Legend
- This is a movable control and can be expanded/ collapsed. It can be moved anywhere within the panel
- It has the following information: Filter Name, Band Number, Row Name, Frequency, Gain, Quality value
- Ex: Equalizer 1 Frequency1 500 Gain 4 Quality 1
- Check box can be used to show/hide the specific curve
- When corresponding Row name is not available we will mark with “—“. This means the data comes from Tuning data
“Clear LUT data” will switch back to the previous mode
“Get LUT data” is supported only when it is directly connected to LUT object
