Hammer, Hammer Bend
When the "Hammer" or "Hammer Bend" Shape is selected,
the Start and End Parameters function a bit differently. Start
specifies where in the note's duration the 1st bend will start
and go to the bend's highest value (Hammer-On), and End
specifies where in the note's duration the 2nd bend will start
and return to zero (Hammer-Off). Additionally, a 3rd bend is
generated for Hammer Bends.
Also, when the "Hammer" or "Hammer Bend" Shape is
selected, the Width Parameter is available. Width is a
percentage of the amount of time between the Start and End
points, and therefore controls how long the Hammer-On
and Hammer-Off bends will be. You can also think of Width
as being the amount of time the bend stays at it's highest
value before returning to zero. A Width of 100% gives you a
Square Shape, while a Width of 0% gives you a Triangle
Shape.
In a Hammer Bend, the 3rd bend starts at a point in the
note's duration following the End setting, and is determined
by a ratio of the Width. Even when Width is at 100% and the
Hammer-On and Hammer-Off Bends are instantaneous, the
final 3rd bend will still be an audible bend.
The following diagrams illustrate the shape of a Hammer
Bend. A Hammer is the same thing, without the final 3rd
bend at the end. Hammers and Hammer Bends follow the
same behavior with Duration as discussed in the previous
section Length Of Bends.
