VIRUS CLASSIC MANUAL 91
The Parameters
BEND SCALE
Determines the shape of the curve which in turn determines the effect of the Pitch Bend data. You
can chose from:
SMOOTH MODE
This is an adaptive parameter smoothing mode (Adaptive Control Smoothing). You’ll find a detailed
explanation of this parameter in “The Virus And Sequencers” on page 149.
You have the following options to chose from:
Value Description
LIN
Starting from the 0 value, (center position) the pitch bend is linear. In other
words, when you bend the pitch up to exactly half the distance of the pitch
bend’s full range, the interval you hear is equivalent to exactly half of the
value you set for BEND UP (see paragraph above).
EXP
Starting from the 0 value (center position) the pitch bend is exponential - at
first the bend is gradual and as you move further away from the center
position, the pitch is bent ever more radically. In this mode you can achieve
slight fluctuations in pitch, for instance a manual vibrato, provided you can
maintain a soft touch, yet still have the option of generating greater inter-
vals because of the exponential increase in range.
Value Description
OFF
Adaptive Control Smoothing is disabled and parameter changes are car-
ried out incrementally without smoothing.
ON
Adaptive Control Smoothing is enabled and parameter changes are
smooth.
AUTO
Adaptive Control Smoothing analyzes the characteristics of the incoming in
parameter changes and carries out these out either continuously
(smoothed) or incrementally.
NOTE
Adaptive Control Smoothing is carried out continuously (smoothed), but
jumps in steps when a new note is played.
