This page lets you edit the amp curve for the selected sound.

The amp curve controls the volume of an UltraWave sound, over time.

Amp curves are usually created via the automatic import.

• Trim knob controls the playback volume of the body section of the UltraWave. If an imported sound had a very loud attack, the body might be set to a lower value to compensate. Usually this knob can be left alone.
• Amp nodes / points the small square represent data points in the amp curve.
• Zoom time controls the horizontal bar shows the location of amp point nodes in terms of a percentage of the sound length. You can zoom in using your mouse wheel or the zoom buttons.
• Marquee selection mode in this mode dragging will create a box, selecting nodes within the box.
• Range selection mode in this mode dragging will create a time range, selecting all nodes within the time range
