Master
In the Master tab, you can set the playback mode and
tuning for the overall Program.
Polyphony sets the playback mode for the program’s
pads. In Mono Mode, only one pad will sound at a time. If
a pad is played while another (or the same one) is still
playing its sample/samples, the new pad will immediately
mute all other currently playing pads in that program. In
Poly Mode, several pads can be triggered at the same time
(limited only by the total number of voices available).
Semi lets you transpose the program up to 36 semitones
up or down.
Fine provides fine-tuning of the program up to 99 cents up
or down.
Volume controls the overall volume level of the loaded sample/samples.
Pan controls the overall panning of the loaded sample/samples in the stereo field.
The Simultaneous Play section lets you set up to four pads that can be triggered by pressing one pad only. This function
is useful for triggering a stack of sounds (e.g., layered kick drums). Use each Pad field to select the desired pad.
The Mute Targets tab lets you select up to four pads (in the same program) for the currently selected pad. When the
currently selected pad is played, it will immediately silence its mute targets. Use each Pad field to select the desired
mute target.
Tips:
This feature is useful for programming realistic hi-hats, especially if only the open or closed hat should be heard.
This feature is similar to the mute group feature, available for both drum programs and keygroup programs.
Samples
Each pad can trigger up to four samples, which are
assigned in four individual layers. Each layer has identical,
independently assignable parameters.
Tap Samples to cycle through its four available sections.
To turn Loop Lock on or off, tap the Loop Lock button.
When on, the loop position is the same as the pad start (as
determined in the third and fourth Samples tabs). When
off, the loop position is independent from the pad start.
Use the Sample field to select the sample file for that layer.
Remember that the sample has to be loaded into the
project’s sample pool beforehand. For information on how to
load samples into a project, please see the Browser chapter.
Semi lets you transpose the selected layer 36 up to semitones up or down.
Fine provides fine-tuning of each layer by cents.
Level lets you adjust the each layer’s volume, letting you control the “balance” of the samples assigned to the pad.
