Hello, everyone. I think I need "Acoustic Mirror for
Dummies."

I just got SF 5.0. I went to the Acoustic Mirror option to
experiment, but it seems very "empty," -- no factory
installed pre-sets like the other features in Sound Forge
5.0. In fact, I can't get it to do anything special to my
existing waves. Am I supposed to fill it up with options
myself by downloading stuff from Sonic Foundry? A little
help, please.

It's JUST YOU. ;-)

There are more presets for accosutic mirror then you can
imagine ... every kind of pro-microphone ever made, halls,
stadiums ,etc. etc.

However, if you bought the downloadable version, you have
to download all of these presets independtly of the
original download. There are a lot, but if you have a
broadband connection (like me) it's a walk in the park.
Dial up ... it would be a nightmare.

If you bought the physical product (CD version) I'm not
sure. You might just need to copy the files from the CD
manually or something.

Ohhhhhhhhhh. Duh -- now I get it. There all on my CD. Do
I just put in the CD when I need a characteristic, or am I
supposed to load them on the computer from the disc. (Can
you tell I'm new at this?)
