This SHARM tutorial explains how to use graphs, multi-tracks, Reverb effects and External soundtracks.

To make it easier to work on the session, set the session length to one minute.

Draw a Nature segment.

Press the “Select File” button.

Select the “Stream Light” Nature sound and press the “Open” button.

Press the “Volume Graph Editor” button.

Draw a graph to control how the volume changes over time.

Enable the “Smooth” check box if you want a smooth graph.

Change the average level of the graph by dragging the left vertical slider.

Add more points to the graph by clicking on the graph area.

To remove a point from the graph, drag the point outside the graph area, or press the “Delete” button.

Close the graph window.

Press the “Add Track” button on the top toolbar.

SHARM adds a new Nature soundtrack to the session.

Draw a second Nature segment on the Nature soundtrack.

Select the “Brook Light” Nature sound and press the “Open” button.

Press the “Play” button to play the session.

The volume graph of the first Nature segment changes the sound mix over time.

Draw a Bells segment.

Press the “D” letter on the keyboard three times to duplicate the Bells segment. Alternatively, you can press the “Duplicate Track” button on the top toolbar three times.

Press the “Play” button to play the session.

When the session includes many segments, it may be easier to listen to only a few of them together at the same time.

To silence a soundtrack temporarily, press the “Mute” box under the soundtrack name.

To reactivate the soundtrack, press the Mute box again.

Add a few suggestions to the new segment.

Press the “Test” button to play the Suggestions segment.

Change the Reverb sliders to add a reverberation effect.

Press the “Test” button to play the Suggestions segment.

You can make the Reverb effect stronger as the listener enters deeper relaxation.

Press the “Reverb Graph Editor” button.

Increase the level of reverberation over time.

Close the graph window.

Use External segments to mix recorded script files or external music files.

Draw an External segment.

Press the “Select File” button.

Select an external sound file to mix.

SHARM adjusts the length of the External segment to the length of the external sound file.
