C. D. E. Model-dependent tone controls. Their actual function varies from model to model. In general,...
- Page 3 Mutable Instruments | Plaits Hold the second button and turn the HARMONICS knob to adjust the range of the FREQUENCY knob. The first 8 settings correspond to C0 +/- 7 semitones, C1 +/- 7 semitones, and so on. The last setting, with...
- Page 4 Mutable Instruments | Plaits An asymmetric triangle processed by a waveshaper and a wavefolder. Sounds familiar? That’s the same signal processing chain as in Tides, when it runs at audio rate! HARMONICS: waveshaper waveform. TIMBRE: wavefolder amount. MORPH: waveform asymmetry.
- Page 5 Mutable Instruments | Plaits An additive mixture of harmonically-related sine waves. HARMONICS: number of bumps in the spectrum. Starts with one big bump, and progressively adds ripples around it. TIMBRE: index of the most prominent harmonic. This control is somewhat similar to the cutoff frequency of a band-pass filter.
- Page 6 Mutable Instruments | Plaits a mess!). MORPH: column index. AUX: low-fi (5-bit) output. Four-note chords, played by virtual analogue or wavetable oscillators. The virtual analogue oscillators emulate the stack of harmonically-related square or sawtooth waveforms generated by vintage string&organ machines.

- Page 8 Note that Plaits uses a less powerful processor than Rings, and is thus limited to 3 voices of polyphony in inharmonic string modeling mode, and 1 voice of polyphony with 24 partials in modal resonator mode. Plaits does not allow you to control the position of the excitation, which is set to 25% of the length of the string/bar/tube.
- Page 9 Mutable Instruments | Plaits MORPH: decay time. Without any signal patched to the TRIG input, a continuous tone is produced. Not particularly useful, but its amplitude can still be modulated by the MORPH knob and CV input! The drum machine emulated on employs a bunch of bridged T-networks, one for each mode of the shell, excited by a nicely shaped pulse;...
