NOTES
3.1 First Steps with Scenes
Scenes are the core structural elements of the Polyend Synth. A scene is a
collection of patches, settings, macros, parameters and sequence data.
Think of a scene as one specic section or building block that contributes to
a complete song or arrangement. A scene is the container for the all of the
musical elements and helps to compose and organise discrete sections of
an arrangement by working with manageable parts.
A collection of Artist Scenes are available in the factory library that
showcase how Synth is used as an instrument, offering unique insights into
the composition of the scene and bringing a signature style and air to the
collection.
Once created, Scenes can be copied and shared in the community with
other Synth users.
Components of a Scene
To create a scene, the conguration and development of these elements is
required. The assembly of these will develop sounds and construct the
scenes that can be used together in a wider production. You will develop
your own workow but the following steps cover the basic principles of
scene creation.
