Waterfall Visual Properties

Waterfall displays a 3 dimensional color frequency graph. The horizontal axis is frequency in Hertz (Hz), the vertical axis is magnitude in decibels (dB). The upward scrolling of the graph is time.

Waterfall Settings
Setting Description
Automatic full frequency range Automatically sets the frequency (vertical) axis range to match the current sampling rate of the file. For a sampling rate of 44100Hz the range is set from 0 to 22050Hz (the Nyquist rate).
Fixed frequency range Allows the frequency (vertical) axis range to be set manually, giving more frequency detail within that range.
From (Hz),
To (Hz)
Sets the frequency range when Fixed frequency range is selected.
Axis Shows numbers on the horizontal axis.
Grid Draws grid lines on the graph.
Fade Fades the graph as it scrolls to the back.
Logarithmic Changes the frequency (horizontal) axis from linear to logarithmic.
1 second dark transparent walls Draws a dim transparent rectangle every second, dividing the graph into 1 second sections.
Height (%) Changes the vertical height of the graph with respect to the height of the visual's window. A value of 50% makes the maximum, peak magnitude height half as high as the window.
Scroll angle Change the vertical scrolling angle. 90° scrolls straight up.
