Hi there

I'm working in a multieffects unit similar to the SPX900 by YAMAHA. and I've to do an aural exciter.How does it work?. I don't know the theory and I don't know how start working. Can anyone help me? Thanks

Well, a exciter is basically just a high-pass filter with a distortion unit to add harmonic content. You may also try band-pass filters and compression to add to the effect. This goes in the direction of an exciter, but is based more on waveshaping...

Zoelzers book DAFX has a chapter on exciters (pg. 128).

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
