Trapcode Sound Keys

### Ranges

![range_ui](https://help.maxon.net/rg/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/range_ui_trapcode-sound-keys.png)

**Active** turns the range on and off.

**Type** offers three options.**Average of Range** will set the output to the average value of the bars in the range. **Peak of Range** will find the highest value in the range. **On/Off Trigger** will set output to max if one bar crosses the range and min at other times.

**Corner 1** defines one corner of the range.

**Corner 2** defines the range's other corner.

**Falloff** provides a control for how the output value should fall off.

| ![instfall](https://help.maxon.net/rg/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/instfall_trapcode-sound-keys.gif) | **Instant** means no special consideration is payed to the fall off. |
| ![linfall](https://help.maxon.net/rg/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/linfall_trapcode-sound-keys.gif) | **Linear** makes the value fall in a linear manner. |
| ![expfall](https://help.maxon.net/rg/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/expfall_trapcode-sound-keys.gif) | **Exponential** makes the value fall with exponential decay. |
| ![nonefall](https://help.maxon.net/rg/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/nonefall_trapcode-sound-keys.gif) | **None (integrate)** creates an ever increasing output by not letting the signal fall off *at all* . This is the same as integrating the output over time. |

**Falloff Time** sets the time for the value to fall from max to min. This is only active if Falloff is set to Linear or Exponential.

**Output Min/Max** contains some predefined, commonly used output value ranges. There is also the **Custom** alternative that activates the Min and Max parameters below.

**Min** sets the minimum output value.

**Max** sets the maximum output value.

**Output**is the paramameter that receives the keyframes when **Apply** is pressed.
