The effect settings page covers sample based parameters that affect the
specic instrument. Note that the generic delay and reverb settings are in
the master section of Tracker.
Overdrive
Overdrive introduces a gritty aggressive tone to the audio
sound. Based on traditional practices of pushing the limits
of an amplier and creating distortion in the signal.
Range 0-100%
Bit Depth
Analog signal are smooth evolving shapes. Digital audio
samples represent this by sampling and registering the
audio information into number of bits. The higher the
number the better a signal is represented. Tracker uses
16 Bit audio which is CD standard, but can be reduced to
give a more LoFi sound effect.
Range 4-16
Reverb Send
The reverb send is not an effect in itself but controls the
amount of instrument audio that is sent to the master
reverb. This is mixed to the signal and combined with
other sends. Reverb adds space and represents room
reections simulating spacial depth, distance or proximity.
Range 0-100%
Delay Send
The delay send is not an effect in itself but controls the
amount of instrument audio that is sent to the master
delay. This is mixed to the signal and combined with other
sends. Delay adds an echo and repetition into a sound
and is a creative effect and lls space to keep interest.

6.5 Instrument Automation Parameters - Page 2
Automation also called modulation, creates movement and interest in an
instrument sound. The instrument automation settings page covers the
settings which control modulation over the instrument sound audio sample.
These parameters are located in the second page of the instrument
parameters.
The modulator can be an LFO or an Envelope. Both shape audio over a
time period for one of the several selectable destinations.
