Sample sin wave with frequency 250Hz and amplitude 1 - Enter the phase shift of the signal
The phase shift of the signal is in degrees in range 0 to 360
Sample spectrogram of pure sin wave with frequency 250Hz - Decrease the volume settings
Decrease your audio volume settings before playback.
- Create Stereo track
