several general questions #18

Open iFriendGit opened 2 years ago

iFriendGit commented 2 years ago

Hello HP, I propose to use this topic to answer subsequent questions, so to not interleave them with other issues. What do you think?

Here comes the first two in any case:

001) Inside "EQ DELAY": when I hit the button "Long Delay", an additional "norm" string appears like this filtersize 8.0ms 0.0ms norm

--> QUESTIONS: a) what does "norm" mean? b) why name the button "Long Delay"? E.g. why not just "Delay". c) why is the delay value changed from 0.0 to 8.0ms (I was not connected and my device config, where I suspected it was taken from was at 16ms at that time))


002) when I hit the "Defaults" button, the following appears: filtersize 0.0ms 2.0ms normalize 20 1 25 1 31.5 1 40 1 50 1 ... etc

--> QUESTIONS: a) what do the values mean b) why this sole 31.5 value amonst integers? c) is the "normalize" value related to the previous "norm" from q001? d) why does the "default" differ from the "default" that is shown in a "virgin" state? In particular the EQ size value, but also all the other ones.

a) what do the values mean Frequency and gain. b) why this sole 31.5 value amonst integers? Values are in HZ and commas are allowed. c) is the "normalize" value related to the previous "norm" from q001? "normalize" ensures that the maximum gain of the filter is not more than 1.0

d) why does the "default" differ from the "default" that is shown in a "virgin" state? In particular the EQ size value, but also all the other ones.

Default is meant to be a template that you can modify. Use "Disable" instead.

thank you HP! about "c) is the "normalize" value related to the previous "norm" from q?" So "norm" and "normalize" are equivalents?

"norm" and "normalize" are the same.
