3.11 Clip View: Parameter Affect Group Changes

In clip view some quick access sound / synth parameters are immediately available and can be adjusted using the ‘parameter affect’ controls. These are quickly accessible using the two gold rotary controls and associated buttons and enable changes of parameters on the currently selected sound, whether synth or kit. The gold upper and lower controls will display the value when edited.

Parameter Affect Group : Clip View

1. Multi-option buttons select the parameter set to be in focus and which can be adjusted by the associated rotary control.
2. (LOWER) control: affects the selected parameter labelled below the parameter selection buttons.
3. (UPPER) control: affects the selected parameter labelled above the parameter selection buttons. Press to change button primary to secondary functions.
4. [AFFECT ENTIRE] affects all sounds when a kit is selected, irrespective of the row selected by the audition / section pads. Always on for synths.

Note

Custom 1, 2, and 3 are mapped based on the preset chosen. These custom controls can mapped to other settings. Labels therefore on the control buttons are defaults only. Parameters can be remapped to the 8 controls, mapped for external MIDI control or existing settings edited by using the sound editor.

Parameter Affect Group Reference : Clip View

Button + Upper / Lower	Primary Parameter Function	Secondary & Other Parameter Functions Press upper Gold lower Gold Control
B1 Upper	Level Sound Level adjustment
B1 Lower	Pan Panning of the sound
B2 Upper	Cutoff / FM Cutoff frequency of the selected filter. In FM Mode Modulator 1 amount	Selects which filter is affected by the control LPF is default, HPF or EQ for Bass/Treble amount
B2 Lower	Res / FM. Filter Resonance In FM Mode Modulator 2 amount	Selects the filter slope for the LPF between 12dB / Octave, 24dB/Octave or Analog modelled DRIVE Filter (24dB/Oct + Saturation).
B3 Upper	Attack Env 1 Envelope Attack Time
B3 Lower	Release Env 1 Envelope Release Time
B4 Upper	Delay Time Effect delay time	Selects Ping-Pong style delay On (PING-PONG) or Off (NORMAL)
B4 Lower	Amount: amount of delay applied to the sound.	Selects ANALOG or DIGITAL delay simulation. Analog is high in CPU Usage and will lower the voice count if necessary.
B5 Upper	Sidechain	Selects the synchronisation for fast speed with 32nd notes or slow speed with 8th notes.
B5 Lower	Reverb	Selects the song applicable reverb preset between SMALL, MEDIUM and LARGE
B6 Upper	Mod Rate Modulation rate	Only used when in ‘Affect Entire’ mode for songs and kit clips where Mod rate and depth are controlling a modulation effect i.e. chorus, flanger or phaser. This selects the next in the list
B6 Lower	Depth Modulation depth	Only used when in ‘Affect Entire’ mode for songs and kit clips where mod rate and depth are controlling a modulation effect i.e. chorus, flanger or phaser. This selects the control between depth, feedback and offset depending upon the active effect.
B7 Upper	Stutter:	Enacts the stutter effect when pressed and stops when released. Length and speed are controlled by turning the control. Speed stutter loop up by pressing and turning the control.
B7 Lower	Custom 1	Configurable. Typical synth presets set to portamento and pitch for sample based sounds
B8 Upper	Custom 2	Configurable. Typical kit presets set to decimation When Osc1 is set as a wavetable synth, Custom 2 is set to control the wave position
B8 Lower	Custom 3	Configurable. Typical kit presets set to bitcrush When Osc1 is set as a wavetable synth, Custom 3 is LFO2 modulation depth of wave position. When Osc2 is set as a wavetable synth, Custom 3 is set to control the wave position.

Adjusting a parameter in the affect group

1. Press Clip to select clip view This is indicated by the clip button illuminated blue.
2. Selected SYNTH or KIT by pressing Synth or Kit. The selected button illuminates red.
3. Audition the synth or kit sound manually with the Audition Pads. This enables adjustments to be heard and for kits selects the target sound to edit.
4. To adjust parameters for ALL kit sounds select Affect Entire which will be lit orange when selected. This is automatically selected to on for Synths as technically there is only one sound.
5. Select the affect group parameter to change. For example envelope 1 ‘attack’ time. This is button 3 from left and the parameter is labelled above the button. The button will be lit orange.
6. Adjusting the upper Gold will adjust the attack time. The LED meter indicates the level / position of the parameter setting within its range and a 0-50 value adjusted will be displayed in a pop-up.
7. The lower Gold will affect the ‘release’ of envelope 1 as the button selections are for two default set parameters. A 0-50 value adjusted will be displayed in a pop-up.
8. Continue to audition the sound as changes are made or play a sequence to hear adjustments during playback.
9. The preset will automatically change to a new sub slot number when saving after a parameter is adjusted e.g. from 52 to 52A to enable saving without overwriting the original if required.

Editing clip parameters in session view

1. Press Song to switch to session view.
2. Press & hold a Pad within the clip row of which to edit the parameters.
3. While still holding, the affect parameter functions will be accessible.
4. The 8 parameter buttons can be changed and the associated upper Gold and lower Gold controls adjusted while ever the Pad is held.
