Parameters List
C Electronic
Sounds that, while electronic, provide the same performance experience as an acoustic instrument
HocusPocus
An exotic synthesized sound is mapped to an Arabic scale.Pressure scale control articulates expressive melodic
cascades and also widens the stereo pan image of the sounds enriched with reverb.
Sequentials
A synthetic bass sound is processed with a phaser effect. This pressure controlled harmonic sound also features
a percussive sound at the edge. You can expressively play with all these
different tonal characters at the same time on the one surface.
ElectricDrive
An electric-mechanical sound. The new pressure control features allow you to control random pitches and pan
positions for the musical scale you set. This combination offers a new expressive experience for percussionists.
SynapseDance
The sequence of tones for each timbre moves differently through the scale types you set.
Expressive control of pressure creates a very complex set of melodic and harmonic interactions.
LimeGrotto
The tone has a very unique sound character with negative values for mute control and a rich reverb with long
early reflections. Explore subtle changes in touch and pressure to discover how the sound character changes.
RockGalaxy
This tone combines 3 different synthetic sounds with delay effects. Amazing expression over pitch and pan
position motion can be articulated by pressure control.
HellContinuo
An overdriven sound is combined with an XFM synthesized sound that uses a sawtooth waveform for both
oscillators.This produces a ‘dangerous’ sound that is on the verge of generating feedback.
WormSwarm
A synthesized sound generated by the extra timbre is processed using a stereo flanger effect. Pressure control
over the flanger produces a unique sonic effect.
Drum’n'Cartoon
This quirky aFrame tone showcases a powerful combination of instrument layers with an effect. In this case,
the pressure-controlled flanger is a perfect fit for the instrument timbre.
GummyWahwah
With this tone, pressure control works like a wah pedal. The funky expressive sound is responsive to a range of
strokes, dynamics and playing speed.
D Effect
Sounds that have pressure controlled effect
BeastCave
The level of the long reverb effect for this ambient tone is controllable by pressure. New forms of spatial
expression are possible because the reverb effect can also be muted by pressure control.
BlackSahara
For this tone, the long reverb effect increases when you articulate pressure control. The volume level of extra
timbre is also controlled by pressure, producing overall, a velocity-sensitive crossfade effect.
TwinklingDrum
Pressure control applied to just the edge sound produces panning delays and note pitch changes that follow
the selected scale type. The produced effect emulates a ‘sound on sound’ style soundscape created using a
looper pedal.
SingingBug
The higher pitched tone is processed using a panning delay, with the delay time mapped to changes in pres-
sure. The pitch of the lower tone changes randomly with each strike when pressure is applied to the surface.
RubberDrum
The delay time of the effect increases depending on the amount of pressure that is applied to the surface. A
pitch bend effect is also controlled by variations in pressure.
CelluloiDrum
This comical sounding tone is created using a pressure controlled wah effect. The panning of the sound is also
controlled by pressure.
MatrixAsia
This tone showcases the expressive capabilities of the aFrame’s multi tap delay effect. It is possible to inde-
pendently set the delay time, level and pan for each of the 10 delay taps.
aMaze!
This tone showcases the many sound design possibilities for mapping pressure control to different parameters,
such as pitch, pan, as well as the volume level for effects and the instrument timbre layers.
Canterbury5
Each timbre layer in this tone has a different harmonically related root pitch. This opens up limitless possibil-
ities for harmony and melodic effects as each timbre’s scale type and pressure scale control type can be set
independently.
Sample&Mold
The combination of sub and extra timbres with different delay tap values and pressure scale control settings
produces a really unique expressive tone.
