Choosing a Filter

The Name box lists all currently defined filter effects. The name of the filter effect usually indicates the manner in which it affects the data. For example, a filter effect that increases the volume could be called Loud.

•	To select a filter effect, choose its name in the Name box.

When you select a filter effect, the Filter and Attributes boxes display the effect and attributes associated with the filter you selected.


Changing the Filter or Attributes

To create a new filter effect, you can change the format or attributes of an existing effect, then save the changes using a new name.
