Accordion

controls the volume of the main accordion voices.

Chorus

 

controls the volume of the additional 

Chorus

which gives the accordion stereo depth. The beauty of many 
accordion recordings is influenced by a nice stereo imaging. There 
is nothing better than a live recording with a great studio setup, 
but we tried to bring this into CBV using 

Chorus

.

Valve

   

controls the volume of the opening and closing 

valves.

Extended Controls

 

The NN-XT’s global controls are available inside the combinator.

Velocity patches

We wanted to make the fabulous sound of CBV Accordion available to people who haven’t any previous experience with 
accordions. With these patches you can’t change the expression during a single note, but you can still be very expressive 
using velocity-sensitivity.

Filter Freq

Frequency of the low-pass filter.

Attack / Relase

 

Adjust ADSR settings.

Cassotto

   

See expression patches.

Converting existing accordion tracks

As you see we added a Mod Wheel automation and more or less followed the velocity of the original accordion track. For 
this track it turned out to be the best, but also try to use the mod-wheel while playing back your track, once you like your 
performance record it.
