While the classic trackers were mostly about composing music, the Polyend Tracker also
introduces a way of performing it. Press
Perform
key to enter this mighty inspiring live pa
tool. It’s offering a
Green mode
, where making mistakes during a live performance is less
likely and a
Red mode
for the performance Fx editing (press Rec key).
Switch Performance template/preset storing mode settings from global to a per-project in
the Config menu.
Punch-in effects
Performance mode
gives access to many configurable effects at the same time. There are 12
effects slots that give the option to choose the Fx set that suits the desired creative concept
(see the available Fx list in the Appendix).
Effects are triggered in real-time using the grid. For each of the chosen effects, there are
four values > first (—) is off by default and the remaining three positions are customizable.
These three are the presets that can be easily turned on by pressing the corresponding grid
pad.
The
punch-in effects
are applied only on the chosen track. Use the 8 screen keys to indicate
which tracks are going to be affected. Processed tracks will be marked in red.
Important:
The effects are applied in correspondence to the pattern or instrument parameters
values. When the volume effect value is 10, it means that when it is on, it will add 10 to
the value of Volume set in instrument parameters or to the value set in the pattern.
Customize Performance effects when being in Edit mode (press Rec key). Navigate
with the left/right arrow keys and chose the type of effect using the up/down arrow
keys and. Try switching effects on different Fx slots by holding Shift and pressing
arrow keys.
When exiting from Performance to Pattern mode, the sequence keeps on playing, but
the used Performance effects will become disabled.
