EXi: STR-1 Plucked String
214
Layering PCM with modeled string timbres
You can also simply layer PCM samples with string timbres.
To do so, set the
Filter Routing to Parallel , and then use the
Mixer page to route the PCM Oscillator to Filter A, and the
String to Filter B (or vice-versa). For more information, see
“5–1a: Routing” on page 234, and “4–9: Mixer” on
page 232.
Creating an initialized STR-1 Program
For the examples above, it can be useful to start with the
default STR-1 settings. To do so:
1. In PROGRAM mode, select INT–C 040 Felix’sDaKat.
2. Press the PAGE button, and then press the Basic/X-
Y/Controllers on Common.
3. Under EXi Instrument Type on Program Basic page,
select STR-1 Plucked String.
Now, you have an initialized STR-1 Program.
4–2a: Multisamples
This section selects the Multisamples to be used for the
string excitation.
Velocity splits
As mentioned above, each Oscillator has four velocity
zones, named MS1 (High) through MS4 (Low). Each of
these zones can play a different Multisample, and has
separate settings for Level, Start Offset, and so on.
Note that, unlike the HD-1, crossfades and layers are not
supported.
No sound will be made if the selected EXs samples have
not been loaded when saving the program. If this
happens, the name of the EXs samples that were not
loaded will be shown in red. Also, the message “Samples
Not Loaded” will appear at the top of the display. To
resolve this issue, load the necessary EXs sample data.
MS1 (High)
These are the settings for the first and highest velocity zone.
If you want to create a simple setup with only a single
Multisample, just set up MS1 as desired, and then set the
Bottom Velocity to 1.
Type [Off, Multisample]
This selects whether MS1 will play a Multisample, or
nothing at all. You can use this to disable any of the four
Multisamples.
Bank [List of Multisample Banks]
There are four types of Multisample Banks: ROM ,
SAMPLING mode , EXs , and User Sample Banks.
ROM Multisamples are the built-in “factory” sounds, and
are always available.
Smp (SAMPLING Mode) Multisamples are the ones that
you can see and edit in SAMPLING mode. After the
abbreviation “Smp,” several different things may appear, as
described below.
Smp: Old RAM means that this is an older Program
pointing to the legacy “RAM” bank. Instead of pointing to a
specific User Sample Bank, it will use whatever
Multisample data is loaded into SAMPLING mode.
Smp: New Sampling Session will appear when there’s data
in SAMPLING mode which hasn’t yet been saved to drive as
a User Sample Bank. For instance, this might happen if
you’ve loaded an old KSC file, loaded individual Samples or
Multisamples, or recorded some new samples. Once the
KSC is saved to drive, the name will update to show the file
path (as described below).
Smp: [file name] will appear when a User Sample Bank has
been loaded into SAMPLING mode. The name is the file
name itself along with those of all its enclosing folders.
EXs Multisample banks are PCM expansion sets created
especially for the NAUTILUS. Each has its own unique
number; for instance, the ROM Expansion is EXs1.
Only the
currently loaded EXs banks will appear on this menu.
User Sample Banks bring the benefits of EXs to your own
sample libraries. You can load and play gigabytes of your
custom or converted samples at once, using Virtual Memory.
The name is shown as a path to the KSC file, including the
file name and the names of all enclosing directories. Only
the currently loaded User Sample Banks will appear in this
menu.
If a sound refers to a User Sample Bank which is not on the
internal drive(s), the name will appear as “Unknown Sample
Bank [number]” when the bank select dialog is open,
shortened to “??[number]” when the dialog is closed.
For more information, see “User Sample Banks” on
page 149 of the OG.
Note that unlike the HD-1, you can only select mono
Multisamples.
Multisample Select [List]
This parameter lets you select a Multisample for the velocity
zone. You can use any mono Multisample, or the left or right
channel of a stereo Multisample.
Some Multisamples may have an upper limit to their
keyboard range, over which they may not produce any
sound.
Note: If the stored selection uses EXs or User Sample Bank
data which is not currently loaded, it will not make any
sound. As an indication of this,
the name will be shown in
red . The message “Samples Not Loaded” will also appear at
the top of the display. To fix this, load the required sample
data.
Multisample Select menu
To select a Multisample:
1. Press the Multisample Select popup button to open
the Multisample select menu.
2. Use the tabs to select a category and sub-category.
3. Select a Multisample from within that category/sub-
category.
4. You can use the Find button to search for
Multisamples by name.
For more information, see “Find dialog” on page 7.
5. Press the OK button to confirm your selection, or
press the Cancel button to exit without making a
change.
The list shows all of the mono Multisamples in the Bank. If
the Bank contains stereo multisamples, you’ll also see the
left and right channels as separate, mono multisamples, with
-L and -R appended to the end of the name.
