Bend
e Bend parameter determines how Pitch bend control messages will aect the current
layer. To apply the same Bend setting to the entire program, set the same value for each layer.
When Bend is set to All, pitch bend is applied to all notes.
When Bend is set to Key and the sustain or sostenuto pedal is held, pitch bend is applied
only to the keys that are pressed down (pitch bend is not applied to notes held with the
pedals). is is useful for emulating guitar string bending techniques. For example, you can
play and release a sustained a note held with the sostenuto pedal (as a guitarist might with an
open string), then play pitch bent notes over the sustained note; the note held with sostenuto
will not bend. When the pedals are not held all notes will bend (including notes which have
a long release envelope, even for keys which are not being pressed down).
When Bend is set to O, pitch bend is disabled for the current layer.
Trigger
When the Trigger parameter is set to Normal, notes are triggered when a key is pressed down
and a MIDI note on message is received by the layer.
When the Trigger parameter is set to Reverse, notes are triggered when a key is released and a
MIDI note o message is received by the layer (velocity is determined by the release velocity
of the released key).
When the Trigger parameter is set to Pedal Down or Pedal Up, notes are triggered when
the sustain pedal is pressed down or released (typically used for triggering piano pedal noise
samples). e sustain pedal will trigger MIDI note 60 with a velocity of 64.
Delay Control
e delay parameters allow you to set an adjustable delay time to delay the start of each note
triggered in the current layer.
Use the Delay Control parameter to select a physical controller or other control source that
will adjust the delay time. e delay time will be adjusted with the range set by the Min
Delay and Max Delay parameters.
Minimum Delay, Maximum Delay
e delay parameters allow you to set an adjustable delay time to delay the start of each note
triggered in the current layer. Use the Min Delay and Max Delay parameters the range of the
delay time in seconds.
If the Delay Control parameter is set to OFF, the Min Delay setting is used. If the Delay
Control parameter is set to ON, the Max Delay setting is used.
