Preset Link
This submodule contains two completely unrelated functions.
• The velocity cross-switch function in the Preset Definition, 5.
Crossfade/Switch allows overlapping samples to be switched according
to key velocity. The Velocity Switch portion of this module sets the
velocity at which samples are cross-switched.
• The current preset can be linked with another preset, allowing you to
place multiple presets on each key of the keyboard. As an example,
suppose you link preset 01 to preset 02 and that preset 02 has previ-
ously been linked to preset 08. When preset 01 is played, presets 02 and
08 will play as well. When preset 02 is played, preset 08 will also play.
The polyphony of the ESI-32 will vary according to the voice architec-
ture of each preset in the stack. If two presets are linked to themselves,
forming a loop, those two presets will play in unison up to the channel
limit of the ESI-32.
