"Blur" Effect for Audio?

"Blur" Effect for Audio?

Is there a quick "blur"/muddle/soften effect for audio somewhere in the default DR suite? I've looked for in a couple times, but never found it.

I find it hard to believe that it's not there somewhere, but I've had to use this third-party plug-in as a replacement just for that. The plug-in is kind of a pain in the ass though, because by default I have to turn off the two effects on the side every time I use it. It's also kind of buggy.

Why does my directional light do nothing? aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

I've tried a spotlight too. I've moved the position/angle around a bunch, changed all the settings in the directional light inspector, and I'm at a loss. So both the background & MediaIn4 are 2D objects, but they're in a 3D plane, so I don't get why I can't get any kind of light to show up on them.

On a side note, why is putting a 3D camera into the mix make the starting distance for my mediaIn (and background) not full screen (2560x1440)? I had to zoom in to a seemingly random 1.6575 z distance to get my pictures to their original size.

I am specifically using it with the word fantasy. I want to make the word an alpha layer and then play clips through it, so I'd like it to show as much of the clip is possible while still being legible and good-looking.

I'm looking through my own library, but I figured some font-heads might have awesome recommendations. Obviously a taller, yet still thick font would be best. If some of the letters were to flare out to the top and bottom, that would work too.

Tetia is the least favorited, and, as far as I've seen through a bit of research, the least mentioned as a favorite character from the core main cast. She is given so much less love than the others that she is the only main character to fall behind Brushbuddy... a bug with no spoken lines. I love Brushbuddy as much as the next, but to be the only character from the Atlier to be behind Brushbuddy makes it kinda sad.

Teita deserves more love than this! Sure, she doesn't get the same level of character arc as Richeh or Agott, but she's just as important and deserving of support as they are!

I personally held a grudge against Tetia throughout the manga purely from the scene in the dragon incident. even though she'd done plenty to redeem herself a hundred fold, the way that scene betrayed her persona, and the way it was the first real "oh shit" moment made it stick. Tetia doesn't deserve that, though.

Tetia's goals and dreams revolve around helping others and making them happy. It's her mission to provide people with that warm fuzzy feeling through her unique magic. She's human, and has a breadth of of emotions just like any other human, yet she strives to be that source of lighthearted happiness that people need in their lives.

Tetia gets such a kick out of being told "thank you" that she says thank you back, for fuck's sake. She deserves more.

I'm looking through tutorials, and nothing shows something like this. I've also tried messing with all the Text+ settings, and something like a corner pin effect won't achieve a curved bottom with a straight top like I want.

I could almost definitely achieve text in the shape of the red box using Photoshop, but it's bothered me for a while that I'm not able to manipulate text as much as I want in DR. I don't know if this is (reasonably easily & quickly) possible in DR, or if I should just accept & use Photoshop for things like this.

So I have the setting turned on where, if you highlight a clip in the timeline, the source gets highlighted in the media pool. I want the opposite of that.

Basically, I like to go back through old projects and copy/paste effects that I did onto new ones. I realized it easiest to identify visual effects in a messy timeline by the sound effects I used for them. I do save custom effects, but sometimes I forget or I think they're just going to be a one-off. then I'm working on a new project and I think "you know what? That one effect I did that one time would work really well here."

Let's just say I use creditless OPs for art projects. People always upload them to YouTube, like immediately, but those uploads always, without fail, use that ai frame interpolation and ai upscaling bullshit. Upscaling and frame interpolation can make things look better, but with modern anime, 99% of the time it just looks worse. Not to mention that interpolation pretty much always leads to some jank-ass animation.

I've looked up how to make creditless OPs before, and haven't found anything. I've looked up if there's a way to find/download new creditless OPs and found nothing. all I want is the unfucked with OPs with the credits removed. Somebody here has got to know something about how I can get/achieve that.
