Rolloff (dB per octave)
Sets the steepness of the attenuation. Higher rolloff values give a steeper attenuation of frequencies above the cutoff frequency. For example, with a rolloff of 6 dB per octave, the sound decreases by 6 dB in amplitude for each octave above the cutoff frequency (an octave above is double the frequency).

Cutoff frequency (Hz)
Sound above this cutoff frequency in Hz is not eliminated but increasingly attenuated as the frequency rises further above the cutoff.

The cutoff frequency (sometimes also called corner frequency) defines the point at which the audio is reduced by 3 dB. Thus there will also be a small and decreasing amount of attenuation just below the cutoff frequency as in the following image.

The buttons
Clicking on the command buttons give the following results:
 * gives a dropdown menu enabling you to manage presets for the tool and to see some detail about the tool. For details see Manage presets.
 * plays a short preview of what the audio would sound like if the effect is applied with the current settings, without making actual changes to the audio. The length of preview is determined by your setting in, the default setting is 6 seconds.
 * applies the effect to the selected audio with the current effect settings, but unlike the effect runs in debug mode. This is primarily of use when writing or editing Nyquist plug-ins.
 * In addition to the normal plug-in behavior, a "debug window" opens to display error messages, normally the debug window will be empty.
 * applies the effect to the selected audio with the current effect settings.
 * aborts the effect and leaves the audio unchanged.
