Tweaking GSO
 

If you carefully read and follow these instructions, you should be able to install and enjoy the MidiTzer/GSO VTPO very quickly and easily.  If you get into a bind, reread and try again.  Never re-install your OS, audio card or GSO unless you are advised by an expert to do so.   See "PC and Audio System Recommendations".

 

The relative volume levels among the ranks are already properly balanced; however depending on the efficiency of your speakers, it may be necessary to adjust the sliders on the Output Busses.  Find the “DSP Station” button (hover you mouse pointer over buttons to see the descriptive pop-up balloons).  Click DSP Station, then select the Output tab near the bottom of the screen.   Adjust to achieve a good balance among the ranks.  The “Input” tab has individual sliders for each rank.  If you wish, you can change settings here to adjust individual rank volumes and other parameters.  There will be no need to use MidiTzer’s settings screen to alter volume or panning once configured as described in the preceding paragraph.

Two stereo instances of GigaPulse Pro Convolved reverb (Large Hall) are on by default when using the “GP” project files.  GSO’s nfx reverb is used for the “NFX” project files.  When the gsp project file has finished loading, take note of the CPU meter on the bottom of the GSO screen.  If it is hovering at 25% or less , you should be good to go.  If it is above 50%, you will need to use an NFX project file instead.

You can adjust the amount of NFX or GigaPulse reverb by moving the “Aux Return” sliders found in DSP Station.

The project files are set to use form 2.1 up to 9.1 output channels by default (See Audio Routing).  The “.1”indicates the subwoofer channel (always output channel 4). 

The imperfections found in the actual TPO are captured in the samples. To some extent, these blemishes add character and realism to the virtual version.

If you need help, please post your questions on the theatre-sf forum or the MidiTzer forum in the GigaStudio section.

Enjoy!
