    Z-PLANE Instruction Manual V1.0 A brief guide of ZPlane ZPlane is based on Red Queen 3-Mode 10-Band Equalizer’s Zplane function.

  • Page 6 Z-PLANE Instruction Manual V1.0 The filter frequency controls set the frequency centre of the filter – this can range from 20Hz to 22000kHz – the full frequency spectrum of human listening (at most). The filter resonance controls determine the ‘sharpness’ of the filter. Low resonance settings can create ‘smoother’...
  • Page 7 Mono devices, when connecting a new ZPlane to them, can automatically route their mono signal in to the left channel, and the left output of ZPlane is connected to the originally wired socket of the mono device, closing the audio loop. Stereo devices can automatically connect their outputs to the left and right inputs of ZPlane, and ZPlane completes the audio chain by connecting its outputs to the originally connected stereo pair sockets.

    In setup (A), this would use ZPlane as an insert effect. This means that whatever control you adjust on ZPlane, it will affect the total sound coming out of the sampler / synth module. If ZPlane is in bypass mode, the audio playing would still sound ‘clean’ and unaffected.
  • Page 10 Reason sampler / synth module In setup (B), this would use ZPlane as a send effect. This means that whatever control you adjust on ZPlane, it will affect the sound coming from the Master Section at a set amount, determined by the Send Effect dial on that specific Mix / Audio channel.
  • Page 11: Using The Dual Function Display

    V1.0 Using the Dual Function Display ZPlane’s Dual Function Display allows you to see the metering before and after filter processing, plus an additional mode view the filter curves that you are actively applying to the incoming audio signal. Simply click the display to change views. Meters mode is always default upon creation.

  • Page 13: Cv Inputs & Controls

    CV inputs and controls ZPlane has a total of 7 CV inputs, with corresponding trim knobs (to scale CV input signals). The CV input sockets are unipolar by design but can allow bi-polar signal. Each of the 7 CV sockets connect to the 7 knob controls on the front of ZPlane, giving more creative use of the equalizer where the user sees best fit.

  • Page 15: How To 'Latch' Your Own Midi Via Remote Overriding

    Reason allows the user to re-define certain controls via MIDI devices by using the Remote Override configuration. This means that a control on ZPlane can be mapped by any MIDI controller you have connected to your DAW. However, you can only map one specific control to any of the available Remote ‘receiving’...
  • Page 16 Z-PLANE Instruction Manual V1.0 Once you are happy with the control being set, you can click ‘OK’ to continue with the new setting, or ‘CANCEL’ to abort the mapping. Also note that if you accept this mapping, the control (if already linked to another) will be fixed to the new mapping.
