In our above example, the central point was 0 and a 10% depth is causing movement between +10 and -10. The offset control builds on depth by setting the central point of the range. The idea of increasing and decreasing the range of movement makes depth a great control to automate! A depth setting of 20% will have the parameter go between – 20 and +20. For example, if your value starts at 0 and the entire range of movement is -100 to +100, a depth setting of 10% will have the value moving between +10 and -10. Rate determines how fast the LFO scrolls through the values and you usually get the option to either sync it to the BPM or select a value in Hz for its speed.ĭepth sets a range for the movement. We’ll use a number of different shapes in the examples. Other common shapes are upward, downward and random. Remember that a little goes a long way, so you may have to highlight the detune effect at key points during your song while holding back during others.The shape determines the type of movement of the parameter – for example, a sine wave moves smoothly across all values in the LFO’s range, whereas a triangle or square wave shape has more jumps between values because of the nature of their curves. For instance, you can add the frequency shifter to a master channel and proceed to automate the “Fine” control to elicit a subtle yet audible detune effect. For best results, use tiny incremental changes as opposed to larger values.
Use the Frequency Shifter’s “Fine” control to detune any signal that runs through. Here are the steps to detune a synthwave track. While many producers seek to purchase expensive plugins that detune tracks in any number of ways, the frequency shifter is all that is needed. Ableton Live ships with the frequency shifter.
