9. Channels
button pressed or by being highlighted by
the encoder, the red background will be
brighter to indicate its selection.
If a channel does not have a sample
assigned to it, there will simply be a red
dot in its number area.
Assigned Sample Name This field
contains the name of the sample assigned
to that channel. If the channel uses
zones, this will be the name of the sample
assigned to
Zone 1.
Channel Mode (MD) Channel Modes
offer a variety of ways for your channels
to interact to create unique textures and
effects. They are described below.
Crossfade Group (X) Crossfade Groups
let you assign from 2 to 8 channels to
groups which can then be crossfaded
under CV control with variable crossfade
width. Up to 4
Crossfade Groups
may be
defined and independently controlled. The
controlling CV input and the crossfade
width for each group are set in the fields at
the bottom of the screen.
Assigning Samples to Channels
The most basic
function of the
Channels screen
is to let you
assign samples
to channels. To
assign a sample
to a channel,
highlight the
Assigned
Sample
field
and click the
encoder. The Select Sample window will
appear. Scroll to the sample of your choice
and click the encoder again to select it.
The
Channels
screen (along with the
Zones
screen, if you’re using zones) is where you
configure your presets, assigning samples to
channels and setting
Channel Modes that
define the way that channels interact with
other channels. Additionally, this is one of the
two places (along with the main home screen)
where you can select the CV input that you’d
like the
DATA 2 knob to replace when on the
home screen.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
It’s important to
understand that channel parameters (Pitch,
Level, Phase Mod, Mutate, Pan/Mix, Sample
Start/End, Loop Start/End/Length, Play Mode,
Envelope, and Loop Mode), while they affect
a channel’s sample(s), are actually owned by
the channel, not the sample. If you set up a
channel and then replace the sample in the
channel with another, the new sample inherits
all of the parameter values of the initial sample.
A FURTHER IMPORTANT NOTE:
Expanding
on the above, the Loop parameters in
particular will almost certainly need to be re-
adjusted for any replacement sample.
Consequently, when replacing samples in
existing channels, you may (or may not) need
to adjust those parameters as desired.
The Channels Screen
For each of the
8 channels, the
Channels
screen
includes:
A Channel
Number Area
If the channel
has a sample
assigned to it, the
channel number
will be black
on a red background. If the channel has
been selected, either by having its channel
