STEEP

STEEP is a special filter mode available in all filters. STEEP cleans up more audio frequencies than the BASE mode but less than the STUDIO mode. More details in the STUDIO help.

The effect of STEEP can be clearly heard in the headphones: audio with STEEP is crispier than in the BASE mode; however, we have lost some audio frequencies beyond the selected audio spectrum limits. The effect can be visualized with before (= BASE) and after (= STEEP) images of AUDIO WINDOW (in JAGUAR PRO only).

The strongest single audio frequency (peak) changes from 10 Hz to 2,680 Hz, and there is a considerable suppression in the amplitude of the lowest (non-speech) audio frequencies. The filter curve is also much "steeper" at the filter edge than in the BASE mode.

HOW TO

You can activate the STEEP mode by rotating the AUDIOBAR > BASE | STEEP | STUDIO button to the "STEEP" position. in JAGUAR PRO, you can also enable it by clicking the filter area in the FILTER APPLET (more information in the APPLET help), or via AUDIO APPLET.

The JAZZ and CALLIOPE filters use different specifications/different mechanisms in the STEEP mode so the audio output may sound a bit different when comparing those filters using the same bandwidth / offset.
