only those notes whose triggers are physically on when the Pitch bend message is generated
(notes held with the sustain pedal, for example, wonÕt bend). This is great for playing guitar
solos on top of chordsÑplay a chord, hold it with the Sustain pedal, then play your licks and
bend them all you want; the chord wonÕt bend with it. A value of ÒOffÓ disables Pitch bend for
the current layer.
Trigger (Trig)
Set Trig to "Rvrs" to have notes triggered on key-up. The initial velocities of notes triggered this
way are determined by the release velocities of the keys that trigger them. The default setting is
"Norm"
Delay Control (DlyCtl)
Here you select, from the Control Source list, a control source that will delay the start of all
notes in the current layer. The length of the delay is determined by the following two
parameters. YouÕll assign a continuous control like MWheel for the DlyCtl parameter when you
want to vary the delay time, and a switch control if you want the delay to either be its
minimum value (switch off), or its maximum (switch on).
The delay control will affect only those notes triggered after the delay control source is moved;
the delay time is calculated at each note start, based on the status of the delay control source at
that time.
Minimum Delay (MinDly), Maximum Delay (MaxDly)
The length of the delay is determined by these two parameters. When the control source
assigned to DlyCtl is at its minimum, the delay will be equal to the value of MinDly. The delay
will be equal to the value of MaxDly when the control source is at its maximum. If DlyCtl is set
to OFF, you get the minimum delay. If itÕs set to ON, you get the maximum delay. This doesnÕt
change the noteÕs attack time, just the time interval between the Note On message and the
start
of the attack. The delay is measured in seconds.
Enable
This selects a control source to activate or deactivate the layer. When the assigned control
source is on (or above the midpoint of 64 for continuous controls) the layer will be active. The
layer will not sound when the control source is off or below its midpoint.
For example, if you wanted to create an octave doubler that would kick in on demand, you
could create a program with a second layer, transpose it up or down an octave, and set its
Enable parameter to any control source, like MWheel. Then whenever your MIDI controllerÕs
Mod Wheel is above its midpoint, youÕll hear the second layer.
Enable Sense (S)
This lets you reverse the orientation of the MIDI control youÕve assigned to enable the layer. A
value of Normal has no effect on the Enable parameter, while Reversed will activate the layer
when the Enable control source is off or below its midpoint, and deactivate the layer when the
Enable control source is on or above its midpoint.
You could use this parameter to set up a two-layer program that would let you use a MIDI
control to switch between layers, say a guitar sound and a distorted guitar. Both layers would
have their Enable parameters set to the same control source, say MWheel. One would have its
Enable Sense parameter set to Normal, and the other would have it set to Reverse. Then the
Þrst layer would play when your MIDI controllerÕs Mod Wheel was above its midpoint, and
the second layer would play when the Mod Wheel was below its midpoint.
This is also the place to set the minimum and maximum values at which the layer will be
enabled. The range for each is -128-127.
