CHANNEL SETTINGS

Main Channel Settings

To open the channel settings - click on the Channel name button in the Channel Window. The Main Channel Settings are located at the top of each Channel Settings window that opens alongside plugin instruments (or hosts channel based instruments). They are common options for every generator and often accessed to set the Mixer Track channel that the plugin is sent to. You can double-click the title of the Channel Settings window to shrink it, so only the Main Channels Settings remain visible. Double-click again to expand.

  1. PAN - Sets the channel panning (left/right positioning of the sound in the stereo space).
  2. VOL - Sets the channel volume.
  3. PITCH - Adds/subtracts cents from the pitch of a channel. Use the pitch bend range LCD to set the range in semitones. (100 cents = 1 semitone). Note: Automate this knob to create slides and pitch bends for VST instruments.
  4. Note: If a Channel Samper does not respond to pitch (plays one note), right-click the Sampler Channel Settings Time stretching (Time) knob and select (none).

  5. FX (Mixer Track Selector) - Selects which Mixer track (of the 64 available) the current channel will be assigned to. By default, all generators are mixed in the master mixer track (the LCD displays "--"). Left-click and drag up/down to set a Mixer Track number. This control will not appear in channels that hold MIDI generators or other generators that do not output audio data (only wave output can be processed by effects). Double-click the FX Selector to open the Mixer window.
