Sound Parameters – Xphorm – Interpolating between two sounds
63 Waldorf Q User’s Manual
• Effect Types
Why aren’t switch parameters xphormed?
The reason is very simple: all the above are made of models. Xphorming between different oscillator
and filter models is not possible because they are representations of analog circuits. Xphorming
between different effect types is not possible as well because what is the middle between a chorus
and a distortion? A Chortion? Or a Distorus? (Not to forget that they are also made of different
models.)
What about two models running at a time and blending between them?
Firstly, this would lower the polyphony drastically. But secondly, it is not the same as xphorm.
Xphorm changes the parameter from one set to another while blending would leave both parameter
sets where they are but would lower the volume of the first module while it would raise the volume of
the second module. An example: two Low Pass filters, one with a low cutoff and another one with a
high cutoff setting: Xphorm would open the filter gradually while blending would make the volume of
the low cutoff part lower while it would raise the volume of the high cutoff part. It wouldn't create
any cutoff values in-between.
Xphorm Edit Menu
The Xphorm menu features two parameters to setup the Xphorm function.
Xphorm Mode off, Modwheel, Pressure
This parameter sets the source that controls the Xphorm interpolation.
• off means that Xphorm is deactivated
• Modwheel means that the Modulation Wheel is used to control the Xphorm interpolation.
• Pressure means that monophonic Aftertouch is used to control the Xphorm interpolation.
���
Please make sure that you don’t use any modulations in the sounds that use the Modulation
Wheel or Pressure as source, because their changes would still be used in the sound. On the
other hand, when you know what you are doing, you can create additional changes by setting
up those modulation connections.
Xphorm Sound Bank and Number
A…X 001…100
In the second page, you can select the sound that is used as Xphorm destination. Based on the switch
parameters of the original sound, it might happen that the Xphorm destination sound sounds different.
If you like that, keep it, if not, select a different sound or change one of the sounds so that it uses the
same switch parameter settings.
• Use the
left display dial
to select Bank A…X from which the Sound program is taken.
• Use the
right display dial
to select the Sound program 001…100 .
