Element Description
Color Adjusts a simple filter which affects the brightness of the sound.
Available values range from 0.0 to 100.0 % (default: 50.0 %).
Glide The tuning of the Fractal tom is locked for each note; in other words
the change in tuning is applied only when a new note is received.
When the Glide parameter is set higher than zero, the pitch glides
smoothly to the new tuning. The Glide parameter then defines the
duration this glide takes, measured in milliseconds: as you increase
the
Glide value, the glide gets slower and more audible. This also
applies when the tom is played across the keyboard. Available
values range from
None (no glide) to 350.0 ms (slowest glide). The
default value is 5.5 ms.
Advanced Page
The Advanced page contains parameters controlling the individual oscillators.
Element Description
HARMONICS Section
KTr. Mode (Key
Tracking Mode)
Selects from two key tracking modes: Harmonic (default) and
Dissonant .
In Harmonic mode all oscillators track the Tune parameter (on the
Main page, see above) and your keyboard evenly. Therefore, the
drum stays in tune with itself as the Tune parameter is adjusted,
and can be played chromatically across the keyboard.
In
Dissonant mode the oscillators track the Tune parameter of your
keyboard/pads unevenly. Therefore, the drum produces dissonant,
detuned harmonics when the
Tune parameter is adjusted or when
you play different notes.
Mix Adjusts the mix between the tone oscillator and the feedback
oscillator bank, measured as a percentage. Available values range
from 0.0 % (tone oscillator only) to 100.0 % (feedback oscillator
bank only). The default value is 5.0 %.
