5–4: Velocity Split
Use Threshold Vel. and Crossfade to specify the velocity
zones sounded by Drumsample 1–8.
5–4a: Velocity Split
1: (Drumsample1)
Drumsample 1 On/Off [Off, On]
This parameter is linked with “5–1b: Drumsample”
Drumsample 1.
On (checked): Check this if you want to use Drumsample 1.
The selected drum sample will sound.
Off (unchecked): Drumsample 1 will not be used. The drum
sample will not sound.
Threshold Velocity [1…127]
This sets the lowest velocity at which the drum sample will
sound. Drumsample 1’s Threshold Velocity can be equal to,
but not lower than, than that of Drumsample 2.
You can change the Threshold Velocity value by touching
the graphic at the right and dragging it (See “* EG, Velocity
Split” on page 6 of the Operation guide.").
Crossfade (Crossfade Range) [Off, 1…127]
This specifies the velocity range starting at Threshold
Vel oc it y over which Drumsample 1 will fade‐out and
Drumsample 2 will fade‐in.
For instance, if the Threshold Velocity is set to 64, and the
Crossfade is set to 20, Drumsaple 2 will start to fade in at
velocities of 84 and below.
When velocities are within the Crossfade, the Oscillator will
use twice as much polyphony as it would normally.
Note: You can only fade between two zones at once.
Curve (Crossfade Curve) [Linear, Power, Layer]
This controls the volume curve of the crossfade. Linear and
Power (short for Equal Power) let you fine‐tune the way that
the two drum samples mix together; one or the other may be
more appropriate for a given pair of drum samples. Layer,
true to its name, lets you layer the two drum samples
together without any crossfading.
Linear means that the two samples will each be at 50% of
their full volume in the middle of the crossfade. Sometimes,
this may create a dip in the volume level; if so, try using
Power instead.
Power, short for Equal Power, means that the two samples
will each be at around 70% of their full volume in the middle
of the crossfade. Sometimes, this may create a bump in the
volume level, in which case you might try selecting Linear
instead.
Layer means that the two drum samples will be layered
together, both at full volume, for the entire range of the
crossfade.
Crossfade Curves
2...8: (Drumsample2...8)
Here, you can edit the sample parameters for Drumsample
2–8. For more information, please see “1: (Drumsample1)”
above.
The parameters for Drumsample 8 are also similar to those
for Drumsample 1, except that Drumsample 8 has no
settings for Theshold (which is always fixed at 1), Crossfade,
or Curve.
