Parameter
|
Description
|
|
|
nStartPosition
|
Start position, expressed in milliseconds, of the affected sound range.
|
nEndPosition
|
End position, expressed in milliseconds, of the affected sound range.. If set to -1 the end position will be set to the end of the sound.
|
nFilterName
|
Numeric value representing the filter name.
Supported values are the following:
Mnemonic constant

|
|
nFilterType
|
Numeric value representing the filter type.
Supported values are the following:
Mnemonic constant
|
Value
|
Meaning
|
FILTER_TYPE_LOW_PASS
|
0
|
Low Pass Filter
|
FILTER_TYPE_HIGH_PASS
|
1
|
High Pass Filter
|
FILTER_TYPE_BAND_PASS
|
2
|
Band Pass Filter
|
FILTER_TYPE_BAND_STOP
|
3
|
Stop Band Filter
|
|
fFrequency1
|
First corner frequency, expressed in Hertz.
For Low Pass and High Pass filters, this parameter represents the cut-off frequency.
For Band Pass and Band Stop filters, this parameter represents the low frequency cut.
The value of this parameter must be higher than 0 and smaller than half the frequency of the recording which can be determined in two ways:
|
fFrequency2
|
Second corner frequency, expressed in Hertz.
For Low Pass and High Pass filters, this parameter is ignored and can be set to 0.
For Band Pass and Band Stop filters, this parameter represents the high frequency cut and its value must be higher than 0, higher than the value of the fFrequency1 parameter and smaller than half the frequency of the sound under editing; the frequency of the recording which can be determined in two ways:
|
fGain
|
Gain applied to the filter, expressed in percentage: typically this parameter should be set to 100 which leaves the original sound level unchanged during filtering; values under 100 reduce the sound level while values above 100 amplify the sound level.
This parameter is ignored by IIR filters like Bessel and Butterworth.
|
fTransitionTime
|
Transition time, expressed in milliseconds, describes how quickly a filter transitions from a pass band to a stop band, or vice versa.
The minimum accepted value is 201 milliseconds.
This parameter is ignored by IIR filters like Bessel and Butterworth.
|
Return value
Value
|
Meaning
|
|
|
Negative value
|
An error occurred (see the LastError property for further error details)
|
enumErrorCodes.ERR_NOERROR (0)
|
The method call was successful.
