available because of a missing Smart Media Card. This missing samples message
can be recalled by pressing [Shift] + [Page-Up]. Just insert the corresponding
Smart Media Card and browse the Medium to give your Spectralis the chance
to load the missing files.
The sample-selection can be found inside the "VCO"-menu. The encoders of
the VCO section are assigned to the following targets:
OSC WAVE:
Turning:
Selects a sample from the current category and subcategory.
Pushing:
Opens the sample selection menu:
OSC WAVE
C:Kick S:TR-Alike 808Phatt [Init]
C:Kick
The first encoder let's you select the category from which the sample has to be
taken.from.
S:TR-Alike
The second encoder allows to select the subcategory for the sample selection.
808Phatt
With the third encoder, the sample can be selected. The selection must be confirmed
by pushing down the encoder button. Samples, not already loaded will be loaded
after confirmation.
[Init]
The
[Init]
function allows to initialize the synth parameters to default values.
3.2.3 Tuning the sample set
The standard pitch of the sample-oscillator can be adjusted in the oscillator section
as well. The oscillator standard pitch can be transposed by octaves using the
[Oct-
Up]
and
[Oct-Down]
-buttons.
The sample oscillator can also be transposed by halftones by turning the
[OSC-
DETUNE]
-knob.
3.2.4 Further Sample-Oscillator parameters
A sample normally sounds very static. Every triggered note does sound exactly the
same. That is a limitation of the sample based tone generation. On real synthesizers
like the hybrid sound engine every note sounds slighly different resulting in more
liveness in the sound character. Some samples of the current spectralis sample library
are created by sampling real synthesizer waveforms. Some of them are two oscillator
samples where you can hear the typical phase cancellation shifting that makes a synth
sounding phatt. However, at real synthesizers the oscillators are freerunning. Every
note, you are playing opens the VCA at another position of this oscillator phase shift
