Editing Presets
To Change the Instrument for any Layer in the Preset
6.
Move the cursor back up to the first field in the first line (the layer).
7.
Use the Data Entry Control to select the layer you want.
8.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each selected layer. Find an instrument that
sounds good when combined with the previous instruments selected.
With all these great instruments to work with, you really can’t go wrong.
Now let’s play with the tuning.
Changing the Tuning
of an Instrument
Tuning the selected layer of the preset changes the pitch of the key on the
controller. If the numbers are “00,” it means that the instruments are tuned
to concert pitch (A=440 Hz). The Coarse tuning value represents whole
semitone intervals. The Fine tuning value shifts the pitch in 1/64 semitones
(or 1.56 cents).
To Tune the Instrument of the Current Layer
1.
Scroll through the Edit menu until you come to the Tuning page.
2.
Move the cursor to the Coarse field (using the cursor button).
3.
Set the value to +12 to shift the pitch up a whole octave. To shift the
pitch in smaller units than a semitone, use the Fine field.
Try tuning one of the instruments to a perfect fifth above the other by
setting the Coarse value to +7.
Tuning an instrument far out of its normal range completely changes the
character of the sound. For example, if you tune a bass guitar up 2 octaves,
it's going to sound rather petite. On the other hand, if you tune it down 2
octaves, you can probably rattle plaster off the walls! Experiment with
radical pitch shifting. You'll be surprised at the results.
