18.18 Vinyl Distortion
The Vinyl Distortion
Effect.
The Vinyl Distortion effect emulates some of the typical distortions that occur on vinyl records
during playback. These distortions are caused by the geometric relationships between the
needle and the recorded groove. The effect also features a crackle generator for adding
noisy artifacts.
The Tracing Model section adds even har monic distortion to the input signal. Adjust the
amount of distortion with the Drive knob, or click and drag vertically in the Tracing Model XY
window. To adjust the distortion's frequency or color, drag horizontally in the XY window
or double-click on the Freq eld and type in a value. Holding the
(PC) /
(Mac) modier while dragging vertically in the XY window changes the frequency band's Q
(bandwidth).
The Pinch Effect section adds odd harmonics to the input signal. These distortions typically
occur 180 degrees out of phase, creating a richer stereo image. The Pinch Effect has the
same controls as the Tracing Model, but generates a rather different sound.
The Drive control increases or decreases the overall distortion amount created by both the
Tracing Model and Pinch.
