Try some of the presets, and note their values below the knobs in the Effect 
Controls panel.
10
Use the Individual Parameters sliders, and add keyframes at the beginning and 
end of a few phrases.
Use wildly different Pitch settings from –12 to +12 semitone steps and switch 
Formant Preserve on and off.
11
Delete Ad Cliches from the sequence, and replace it with Music Mono.wav (you 
can do that by dragging Music Mono.wav to the beginning of the sequence, on 
top of Ad Cliches, to do an overlay edit).
12
Drag Treble to that clip, and increase its parameter.
This guitar clip lends itself to a treble boost.
#
 Note:
Treble is not simply Bass in reverse. Treble increases or decreases higher frequencies 
(4,000 Hz and greater), while Bass changes low frequencies (200 Hz and less). The human-audible 
frequency range is roughly 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. Apply both Bass and Treble to a clip, and switch 
between them by clicking their Toggle effect on and off buttons.
13
Delete Treble, drag Reverb to the Effect Controls panel, and open Reverb’s 
Custom Setup.
#
 Note:
Formant 
Preserve is not a 
misprint. 
Formant
is the 
character, resonance, 
and phonetic quality 
of a particular voice, 
so Formant Preserve 
attempts to retain those 
elements even with 
severe pitch changes.

Play the clip, and drag the three white handles in the display to change the 
character of the reverb.
This is a fun effect that can give some real life to audio recorded in a “dead” room—
a room such as a recording studio with minimal reflective surfaces. As shown here, 
each of the three handles in the graphic control corresponds to a knob below it:
