modes.
K1...6 Detune
adds an additional detuning interval up to
+/-50 cents (100 cents is one semitone).
Tap on
K1...6 Level/Ratio/Detune
to open a pop-up
menu for further settings:
•
Normal
: parameter change is normal.
•
Fine
: kernel level change is fine.
•
Super Fine
: kernel level change is super fine.
•
Set Default
: sets the parameter to its default value.
•
Set Last Loaded
: resets the parameter to the last
loaded value from the current sound patch.
K1...6 Phase:
You can set a fixed start phase (in degree)
for each kernel waveform, or set it to
Free
for getting a
random phase at each note onset.
K1...6 PitchMode:
You can switch between 6 modes that
determine how pitch is handled for kernels. Each mode has
then one (
Fixed
and
LFO
) or two additional parameters for
pitch control.
•
Ratio
: The kernel pitch is derived from the oscillator
base pitch by putting a multiplier into the game.
•
Sub-Ratio Mode:
Like Ratio mode, just using dividers
instead of multipliers for getting undertones.
•
Ratio + Offset:
Like Ratio mode but having a parame-
ter
K1...6 Offset
which detunes by a fixed value in
Hertz instead of an interval. With this, you get a
constant beating frequency over the whole pitch range.
•
Semitones:
Like Ratio + Offset mode, but using a semi-
tone scale instead of a ratio. This is useful for more sca-
le- or chord/interval-based detuning or similar. Plus
additional
K1...6 Offset
for fixed beating.
•
Fixed:
Sets the kernel to a fixed frequency from 0-10
kHz ignoring the oscillator base frequency. Still, this fi-
xed frequency can be modulated.
•
LFO:
Like Fixed mode, but with a low frequency range.
•
MIDI Learn CC
: activates MIDI Learn, which maps an
incoming MIDI control change to this parameter.
