Edit/Effect Parameters
popular because for low pitch shift ratios, splicing is infrequent. These pitch shifters can create
very interesting stereo fields by panning each of two pitch shifted voices selectively, and because
of the inherent time delay modulation of the algorithm. The BUS1 and BUS2 parameters can be
routed into the effect with different Dry/Wet mixes. BUS3 (not shown) is a dry path.
The parameters available for this algorithm are:
VC 1 SEMI
Range:
-12 to +12
This parameter allows you to adjust the pitch of Voice 1 up to an octave above or below the
original pitch in semi-tones (half steps).
VC 1 FINE
Range:
-99 to +99
This parameter allows you to fine tune the pitch of Voice 1.
VC 1 VOL
Range:
0 to 99
This parameter allows you to adjust the volume of Voice 1. A setting of 0 would eliminate any
audible pitch shift.
VC 1 PAN
Range:
-99 to +99
This parameter allows you to assign the location of Voice 1 in the stereo field. A value of -99
would be far left, and +99 would be far right.
VC 2 SEMI
Range:
-12 to +12
This parameter allows you to adjust the pitch of Voice 2 up to an octave above or below the
original pitch in semi-tones.
VC 2 FINE
Range:
-99 to +99
This parameter allows you to fine tune the pitch of Voice 2.
VC 2 VOL
Range:
0 to 99
This parameter allows you to adjust the volume of Voice 2. A setting of 0 would eliminate any
audible pitch shift.
VC 2 PAN
Range:
-99 to +99
This parameter allows you to assign the location of Voice 2 in the stereo field. A value of -99
would be far left, and +99 would be far right.
QUALITY
Range:
LONG/SMOOTHER or SHORT/COARSER
This parameter allows you to choose between a long/smooth setting, or a short/coarse setting. A
smooth setting would sound best with slower sustaining chords, whereas a coarse setting would
enhance a rapidly played musical passage. Depending on your sound source and musical needs,
set this parameter accordingly. This parameter actually controls the effect transport delay;
smooth yields a long transport delay, coarse yields a short transport delay.
LFO RATE
Range:
0 to 99
This parameter controls the rate of pitch modulation that creates a chorusing effect. To achieve
chorusing, this rate must be very low.
WIDTH
Range:
0 to 99
This parameter controls the excursion of pitch modulation. Since the rate is usually very low,
then the width is usually very large.
