DSP

Template:Otherlang2 In the context of Half-Life 2 and other Source games, DSP, or Digital Signal Processor, refers to the audio effects such as echoes, reverberation and similar which can be applied to currently playing sounds. DSP effects are automatically handled depending on the materials around the player, and can be overridden with soundscapes (env_soundscape).

This list contains DSP presets available in all Source Engine games (except for CS:GO with the introduction of HRTF audio algorithms).

DSP room type (soundscapes)

Ideal for soundscapes. Adds effects to audio, that makes it sound like your in room or outside, echos and stuff like that.

DSP system presets

Effects used for specific scripts.

Number	Name	Description

39	Strider pre-fire
40	player spatial (wall) delay
41	spatial delay	reserved for spatial delays
42	spatial delay	reserved for spatial delays
43	spatial delay	reserved for spatial delays

DSP test

Used for testing audio effects.

Number	Name	Description
44	Test 1	pitch up 10%
45	Test 2	pitch down 10%
46	Test 3
47	Test 4
48	Test 5
49	Test 6	No effect

DSP speaker type (env_microphone)

Used with env_microphone. These ones creates effect like it's comming from speaker (from radio, tv e.t.c.).

Number	Name	Description
50 - 54	Nothing	No effect
55	Loud speaker
56	Very small speaker
57	Echoing speaker
58	Small speaker
59	Tiny speaker

DSP automatic

Templates for automatic dsp creation.

Note:the dsp interpolator blends between two presetes. for instance, a new preset is created between room empty small bright and room empty huge dull based on size of room and reflectivity. room empty vs room full is chosen based on room diffusion - ie: how full of objects the room is. Room type, such as room, hall, tunnel is chosen based on shape of space.
