The SoundReplacer Solution SoundReplacer Parameters SoundReplacer solves these timing problems by matching the original timing and dynamics of the source audio while providing three separate amplitude zones per audio event. This allows you to trigger different replacement samples according to performance dynamics. Each replacement sample is assigned its own adjustable amplitude zone. Variations in amplitude within the performance determine which sample is triggered at a specific time. For example, you could assign a soft snare hit to a low trigger threshold, a standard snare to a medium trigger threshold, and a rim shot snare to trigger only at the highest trigger threshold. Replacement samples that are triggered in rapid succession or in close proximity to each other will overlap naturally—avoiding the abrupt sound truncation that occurs on many samplers. In addition to its usefulness in music projects, SoundReplacer is also an extremely powerful tool for sound design and post production. Morphing gun shots, changing door slams, or adding a Doppler effect can now be accomplished in seconds rather than minutes—with samplelevel precision. Replacement audio events can be written to a new audio track, or mixed and re-written to the source audio track. Sample thresholds can be amplitude-switched between the replacement samples, or amplitude crossfaded for seamless transitions. 108 Digidesign Plug-Ins Guide SoundReplacer Waveform Display Waveform display with trigger markers shown The waveform display shows the audio that you have selected for replacement. When you select audio on the source track, then open SoundReplacer, the audio waveform will automatically be displayed here. Once the audio selection is displayed, you can load the desired replacement samples and adjust their trigger thresholds while viewing the waveform peaks. Trigger markers then appear in the waveform, indicating the points at which the samples will be triggered. The color of each marker indicates which threshold/replacement sample will be triggered. The Zoomer allows you to increase or decrease waveform magnification here to help accurately set trigger thresholds.
