Dynamic Processing
195
This submodule lets you alter the way the keyboard processes the notes
(not the sounds) that you play. Options include a gate or trigger Enve-
lope Mode, a monophonic Solo Mode, and a Nontranspose function for
maintaining a constant pitch throughout a zone.
1. Activate Dynamic Processing module.
2. Select Submodule 7.
3. Move the cursor to the parameter(s) to be adjusted, and select
on or off with the data entry knob.

KEYBOARD MODE
Mode: trigger
Solo: off
Nontranspose: off
•
Env Mode:
chooses between gate mode or trigger mode. In gate
mode, the AHDSR envelopes react as described earlier. Holding
down a key cycles through the AHDS stages, and releasing initiates
the Release phase. In trigger mode, pressing a key, however briefly,
cycles through the AHR stages and ignores the decay and sustain
phases. Trigger mode is usually the best mode to use when
triggering the ESI-32 from external drum pads.
•
Solo:
provides the playing action of a monophonic synthesizer with
single triggering and last-note priority. Solo mode produces more
realistic effects when working with monophonic instrument sounds
such as solo trumpet, flute, or sax, since this mode does not allow
you to play a chord.
•
Nontranspose:
lets a sample play throughout its assigned zone at its
original pitch only—there will be no transposition. This is useful
when determining the original note at which a sample was recorded.
Nontranspose is also useful if you’re playing drum parts from the
keyboard. Assigning a drum sound to a range consisting of several
keys provides an easier target than being forced to hit a single key.
4. Press ENTER to exit the submodule.
The ESI-32 will return to the
Module Identifier.

Tip:
If you have a sound effect layered
behind a melodic line, but don't want the
effect to transpose as you play the melody,
simply Nontranspose the sound effect.
