Ringshifter The Ringshifter effect combines a ring modulator with a frequency shifter effect. Both effects were popular during the 1970s, and are currently experiencing something of a renaissance. The ring modulator modulates the amplitude of the input signal using either the internal oscillator or a side-chain signal. The frequency spectrum of the resulting effect signal equals the sum and difference of the frequency content in the two original signals. Its sound is often described as metallic or clangorous. The ring modulator was used extensively on jazz rock and fusion records in the early 1970s. The frequency shifter moves the frequency content of the input signal by a fixed amount and, in doing so, alters the frequency relationship of the original harmonics. The resulting sounds range from sweet and spacious phasing effects to strange robotic timbres. Note: Frequency shifting should not be confused with pitch shifting. Pitch shifting transposes the original signal, leaving its harmonic frequency relationship intact. Getting to Know the Ringshifter Interface The Ringshifter interface consists of six main sections. Mode buttons Oscillator parameters 112 Chapter 8 Modulation Effects Delay parameters Envelope follower parameters LFO parameters Output parameters • Mode buttons: Determine whether the Ringshifter operates as a frequency shifter or as a ring modulator. See Setting the Ringshifter Mode. • Oscillator parameters: Use these to configure the internal sine wave oscillator, which modulates the amplitude of the input signal—in both frequency shifter modes and the ring modulator OSC mode. See Using the Ringshifter’s Oscillator.
• Delay parameters: Use these to delay the effect signal. See Using the Ringshifter’s Delay. • Envelope follower parameters: The oscillator frequency and output signal can be modulated with an envelope follower. See Modulating the Ringshifter with the Envelope Follower. • LFO parameters: The oscillator frequency and output signal can be modulated with an LFO. See Modulating the Ringshifter with the LFO. • Output parameters: The output section of the Ringshifter includes a feedback loop and controls to set the stereo width and amount of the dry and wet signals. See Controlling the Ringshifter Output Parameters. Setting the Ringshifter Mode The four mode buttons determine whether the Ringshifter operates as a frequency shifter or as a ring modulator. • Single (Frequency Shifter) button: The frequency shifter generates a single, shifted effect signal. The oscillator Frequency control determines whether the signal is shifted up (positive value) or down (negative value). • Dual (Frequency Shifter) button: The frequency shifting process produces one shifted effect signal for each stereo channel—one is shifted up, the other is shifted down. The oscillator Frequency control determines the shift direction in the left versus the right channel. • OSC (Ring Modulator) button: The ring modulator uses the internal sine wave oscillator to modulate the input signal. • Side Chain (Ring Modulator) button: The ring modulator modulates the amplitude of the input signal with the audio signal assigned via the side-chain input. The sine wave oscillator is switched off, and the Frequency controls are not accessible when Side Chain mode is active. Using the Ringshifter’s Oscillator In both frequency shifter modes and the ring modulator OSC mode, the internal sine wave oscillator is used to modulate the amplitude of the input signal. • In the frequency shifter modes, the Frequency parameter controls the amount of frequency shifting (up and/or down) applied to the input signal.
