Model 585 Time Scaling Processor 1-1 Chapter 1 Introduction The Model 585 Time Scaling Processor delive rs true time scali ng and pitch shifting for the studio professional. A change in the playback speed of analog tape— or in the sample playback rate f or digital formats—has always br ought about a change in the audio pitch as well as the dura[...]

Model 585 Time Scaling Processor Introduction 1-2 Pitch shifting, som etim es referred to in othe r documents as pitch sca ling, alters the perceived frequency of the audio signal from that of the original signal, while leaving the duration of the signal the same as the origina l. Pitch shifting and its implementation using Model 585 is covered in [...]
