Sound Forge effects
The remainder of this chapter describes the functions located in the Effects menu.
Acoustic Mirror
The Acoustic Mirror effect is a powerful digital signal processing tool that allows you to add environmental coloration to your existing
recordings. For more information, see What are the Acoustic Mirror effects? on page 215.
Amplitude Modulation
Use the Amplitude Modulation effect to apply a sinusoidal or square-shaped periodic gain to the input signal. The frequency of the gain
waveform can be specified to create effects varying from a slow tremolo to unusual sound distortions.
For information about using the Amplitude Modulation effect, click the Help button ( ) in the Sony Amplitude Modulation dialog or
refer to the Sound Forge online help (from the Help menu, choose Contents and Index).
Chorus
From the Effects menu, choose Chorus to add a pitch-modulated and delayed version of the input signal to the unprocessed input
signal. The effect simulates the variances in pitch and timing that occur naturally when two or more people try to play or sing the same
thing at the same time.
For information about using the Chorus effect, click the Help button ( ) in the Sony Chorus dialog or refer to the Sound Forge online
help (from the Help menu, choose Contents and Index).

Distortion
From the Effects menu, choose Distortion to tailor the gain at all input levels of a signal. You can create effects ranging from dramatic to
subtle distortion, simple compression, expansion, and noise gates.
For information about using the Distortion effect, click the Help button ( ) in the Sony Distortion dialog or refer to the Sound Forge
online help (from the Help menu, choose Contents and Index).
