EffeTune app documentation

The following section is reproduced from the English EffeTune app documentation. Its parameter names and values describe the app UI and can differ from semantic API parameters through transforms or value maps. The generated contract above is authoritative.

Auto Pan

Auto Pan moves the level of each stereo pair between left and right. If the audio has an unpaired channel, that channel remains centered.

Sound Enhancement Guide

  • Start with Rate around 0.2–0.5 Hz and moderate Depth for slow, unobtrusive movement.
  • Reduce Width when headphone movement feels too wide; offset Center when the recording needs a stable bias to one side.
  • Triangle gives a more uniform traverse; Sine slows near the ends for gentler motion.

Parameters

  • System Presets — use Gentle Auto Pan, Wide Auto Pan, or Fast Auto Pan to load a complete starting point. Adjust individual parameters afterwards to refine it.
  • Rate (0.05–20 Hz) — sets movement speed.
  • Depth (0–100%) — sets how far level moves around the center; 0% is neutral.
  • Center (-100–100%) — shifts the midpoint left or right.
  • Width (0–100%) — sets the usable stereo span.
  • Waveform — chooses Sine or Triangle motion.
  • Phase (0–360°) — sets the starting point of the repeating movement.
