Defining the
Real-time Crossfade
Range
The Real-time Crossfade window lets you control the volume of the four
layers using a real-time controller such as a front panel knob, a pedal or an
LFO or Envelope generator. The controller is defined by the PatchCord
parameter (see “PatchCords” on page 230).
The Fade fields define the crossfade range in velocity for the currently
selected layer. The first Fade field defines the Fade In amount for the low
Real-time Control value. The second defines the Fade Out amount for the
high Real-time Control value. The Fade value range is from 0 to 127.
After the Ranges and Fades have been adjusted for each layer in the Real-
time Crossfade screen, you must assign a real-time controller to RTXfade
(Real-time Crossfade)
on each Layer in the PatchCord screen. Set the
PatchCord Amounts to +100.
To Set Up a Real-time Crossfade Between Two Layers
As the real-time control (knob, pedal, LFO, etc.) is increased, Layer 1 fades
out as Layer 2 fades in. This example only uses two of the possible four
layers. Refer to the screen diagrams below.
