2.2 Controlling parameters
Knobs, faders, and numerical displays are controlled
by left-clicking on them, then dragging the mouse up
or down in vertical direction (see fig. 2.2).
Hold down Shift while turning knobs to slow down
the movement, in order to set precise values. Use
Ctrl+Click to set knobs to their default position.
Figure 2.2: Controlling parameters.
The mouse wheel is a very useful tool to speed up
your workflow, and works on almost every parameter.
Use the mouse wheel on numerical displays to increase
or decrease the current value. Use the mouse wheel on
drop-down lists, to select the previous or next param-
eter in the list. Knobs and faders can be fine tuned
using the mouse wheel, in the graphical envelope edi-
tors it zooms the view.
2.3 MIDI Learn
Right-click on a parameter then choose "Learn" to link
it to a particular MIDI controller. Afterwards, turn
any knob or fader on your MIDI gear to link it to
that parameter. Unlink controllers by right-clicking
on a parameter then choosing "Forget".
Note that
without any assignments, Dune 2 uses a default MIDI
controller map (see chapter 6).
2.4 Adjusting Polyphony
Dune 2 allows you to play multiple notes at the same
time. The "Polyphony" drop-down menu in the mas-
ter section on the right adjusts the number of notes
that can be played simultaneously.
Each note you play triggers one or more unison
voices (the number of active voices are displayed in
the MAIN section of the center screen). Since each
voice costs processor time, it is a good idea to limit
the polyphony as much as possible.
When choosing Mono or Legato, only one note can
be played at a time. Legato allows to smoothly go from
one note to another without retriggering the envelopes.
