Defining Layer Parameters
Chorusing the Layer
Chorusing “thickens” the sound by doubling the sound in stereo and then
detuning it. Every layer with chorus turned on uses twice the polyphony
for that layer.

WARNING
: Because it
works by doubling instruments,
Chorusing halves the number of
notes you can play.
The first field in this screen turns Chorus On or Off and allows you to adjust
the amount of detuning (1 to 100%). The
Width
parameter controls the
stereo spread. 0% reduces the chorus to mono and 100% provides the most
stereo separation.
Sound Start Offset
and Delay
Sound Start
sets where the instrument begins playing when you hit a key.
Setting the Start Offset amount to “0” plays the sample from the beginning.
Higher values move the Sample Start Point further into the sample toward
the end. There is also a PatchCord source which can be used to change the
Sound Start point at note-on time.
Controlling the Sound Start using Key Velocity (< Amt -) brings in the attack of the wave
only when you play hard. This is especially effective with percussion instruments.
See “Base Tempo” on
page 54.
Delay
defines the time between when you hit a key (note-on) and the onset
of the current layer’s note and the start of the envelopes (if applicable).
Delay values below zero are
Tempo-based
values, meaning the time is based
on the Base Tempo setting. Note values are displayed by adjusting the Delay
Time value below zero. The sound will be delayed by the selected note
value based on the master clock.
