OSC/Pitch
Thesepagescontrolthefirstandmostbasicelementsof
sounds:theMultisamplesthattheoscillatorsplay,andthe
pitchusedtothem.Forinstance,youcan:
• SelectMultisamplesforSingleandDoublePrograms.
•Setupvelocitysplits,crossfades,andlayersforSingle
andDoublePrograms.
•Setthebasicpitchofthesound,includingth
eoctave,fine
tuning,andsoon.
•Controlpitchmodulationusingavarietyofcontrollers
suchasLFO,pitchEG,andthejoystick.
NotethatwhentheOscillatorModeissettoSingle,only
Oscillator1’sfiltersareactive;thepagesforOscillator2’sfil‐
terswillbegrayedout.

ThissettingwilldependontheOscillatorModesetting.
IfitisSingleorDouble,eachoscillatorcanuseuptofour
multisamples.
•Multisampleslayoutoneormoresamplesacrossthe
keyboard.Forinstance,averysimpleguitarMultisample
mighthavesixsamples–oneforeachstring.
Velocity splits, crossfades, and layers
Asmentionedabove,eachOscillatorhasfourvelocity
zones,namedHighthroughLow.Eachofthesezonescan
playaMultisample,andeachhasseparatesettingsfor
Level,StartOffset,andsoon.
Eachofthezonescan fadeintothenext,tocreatesmoother
velocitytransitions.Zonescanevenbelayeredto
gether,two
atatime.
Youcanstackamaximumoftwovelocityzones,causing
twosamplestosoundsimultaneously(layering).Youcan
alsousevelocitytosmoothlyfadebetweenthesamplesof
thesetwozones(velocitycrossfading).

Thesearethesettingsforthefirstandhighestvelocityzone.
IfyouwanttocreateasimplesetupwithonlyasingleMul‐
tisample,justsetupHighasdesired,andthensetthe“Bot‐
tomVel.”(BottomVelocity)to1andthe“Range”toOff.
