preset
management
Whenever the
repeat
value is greater than 0,
the
phase
parameter will consider all the repe-
titions as one long cycle when calculating phase
shift. Hence, the next envelope in a chain may be
activated anytime during the repeats of the pre-
ceding one.
note:
the default value of
phase
is
zero. When a looped chain is selected from the
algorithms, at least one
phase
value needs to
be set to more than zero for the whole loop to
function properly.
Press the
menu
button two times to leave this
menu and cycle back to the main screen. Please
note that the activated functions are indicated
by the small
chain
,
phase
, and
repeat
labels
below the shape depiction.
MENU: PRESET MANAGEMENT
Zadar offers a myriad of parameters and set-
tings that can create quite complex program-
ming configurations. Fortunately, it is possible
to save your work for later use within the de-
sired patching scenarios. The red encoder
A
is
used to navigate within the
preset
page (fig.
6). Rotate the knob to select one of 18 preset
slots. Then push the knob again to bring up the
selection of possible operations:
save
,
load
,
clear
, and
default preset
. To prevent mis-
takes, a confirmation will be required for each
operation. Each preset stores all the module set-
tings. The default preset is recalled on module
power-up. Press the
menu
button once to leave
this menu and cycle back to the main screen.
COPYING THE SETTINGS
Press and hold the
channel
button
4
to
open the channel settings
copy
menu. It is
possible to paste the current channel settings
to any other channel or all at once. The red en-
coder
A
is used to navigate within the
copy
menu. To leave the menu without copying,
select
cancel
.
QUICK SAVE
Zadar does not auto-save edited channel
settings. To quickly save them to the default
preset slot, press and hold the
menu
button
6
. The operation is confirmed by
menu
and
channel
buttons flashing once.
EXPANDABILITY: NIN
Nin, an expander module also available from
Xaoc Devices, offers a second set of assignable
CV inputs and manual trigger/gate push-but-
tons for more comfortable tweaking. Manual
triggering via the Nin expander buttons dis-
plays the triggered channel envelope on the
screen.
ACCESSORY
Our Coal Mine black panels are available for
all of Xaoc Devices modules. Sold separately.
