Waves: Renaissance Bass (aka Rbass) Flashcards
What is the secret?:
The brain can reconstruct a “missing fundamental ”from just the______ the ear is hearing.
harmonics
What is the secret?:
if you have a radio with a small speaker, the bass guitar in a rock song, or the double bass in a concerto, can not be reproduced by that very small speaker, that is, the fundamental pitch is too ____ for that speaker to produce.
low
What is the secret?:
the brain recognizes
that harmonics are related to each other (i.e., correlated), and reconstructs the missing a)_____
Therefore, you hear the low bass note, even though it is not coming out of that speaker.
fundamental
What is the secret?:
Waves created the MaxxBass algorithm to do exactly this,taking the very low bass (user controllable) and
creating ______ that can be added into the signal (variable by user).
harmonics
What is the secret?: xtra cred:
MaxxBass is taking the very______ (user controllable) and
creating harmonics that can be added into the signal (variable by user)
low bass
Chapter 2 - Controls
Signal flow in the Renaissance Bass is from the __ to __ , so it’s easy to see how the original bass signal
left to right
Chapter 2 - Controls:
Signal flow in the Renaissance Bass is from the left to right, so it’s easy to see how the original a)____signal and the new b) ____are contributing to the
c) ____
a) original bass
b) harmonics
c) total output
Chapter 2 - Controls:
On the_____ side is the meter for the Original Bass level.
left
Chapter 2 - Controls:
In the ____is the level meter for the Harmonics that are created.
middle
Chapter 2 - Controls:
On the _____ side is the output meter, with infinite peak hold numbers at the bottom of the meters.
right
Chapter 2 - Controls:
On the right side is the output meter, with _______ at the bottom of the meters.
infinite peak hold numbers
Chapter 2 - Controls:
Switches the original bass (frequencies below the Freq value) in or out of the final output signal of the processor
-In/Out (Original Bass)
Chapter 2 - Controls::
_______
This control is simply a level control of the Harmonics that are generated.
intensity
Chapter 2 - Controls:Intensity:
It ranges
from -_dB to +_dB.
from -24dB to +24dB.
Chapter 2 - Controls:Intensity: :
The zero reference level (0.0) is just a rough approximation for
most systems to achieve a_____ equal bass level.
perceived
Chapter 2 - Controls:Intensity:The zero reference level:
, if you completely
remove the Original Bass (the In/Out button is set to Out), an Intensity setting of____
will very roughly give you equal perceived bass by using only Harmonics.
Of course this
will change a great amount depending on the b)______, your c) ___, the d) _______,and so forth. It’s not a recommended starting point,it’s just________.
a) 0.0
b) source material
c) speakers
d) the room you are in
e) the middle of the control range.
Chapter 2 - Controls:Intensity:
The higher the Intensity value,the more _____ to the output signal
Harmonics are added
Chapter 2 - Controls:
This simply controls where the process begins (much as in a crossover).
Freq
Chapter 2 - Controls:
Freq-This simply controls where the process a)____(much as in a b)______).
a) begins
b) crossover
Chapter 2 - Controls: example:
With the setting ,say 65Hz, all frequencies below 65Hz will have a)______ generated by the system and added by the
b)____ control
a) harmonics
b) Intensity
Chapter 2 - Controls:
The output ____control, which is reflected in the output meters immediately beside the
gain control.
Gain
Chapter 2 - Controls:
These meters show the output level of the processor.
output meters
Chapter 2 - Controls:output meters:
Just below each of the meters are
____indicators, showing the highest peak (sample accurate) since
the last reset.
infinite peak hold numeric indicators
Chapter 2 - Controls:output meters:infinite peak hold numeric indicators:
To______ just click the meters anywhere.
At the top of the meters is a clip light. Click it to _______
reset,
