Doppler/Pan - E-Mu ESI-32 Operation Manual

7. Doppler/Pan

This function allows you to apply either a pre-programmed or user-
definable sound path to a mono sample or the left side of a stereo
sample. The result is a stereo sample with pitch shifted and left-right
gains adjusted according to the path. The sound can move dramatically
forward-back and left-right in a 2-D space in front of the listener. Several
pre-programmed paths and up to 10 user-definable paths are available
with up to 26 points per path.
1. Activate Digital Processing module.
2. Select 8. Digital Tools II, 7. Doppler/Pan (8/7). The display will
show the current path, level threshold and Doppler status.

3. Select the desired Path for the Doppler/Pan. The lower line of the
display changes to show the resulting length of the compressed or
expanded sample. The choices are:
Fast-by (L->R) Sound moves left to right quickly
Slow-by (L->R) Sound moves left to right slowly
Far->Near (fast) Sound moves far away to close quickly
Far->Near (slow) Sound moves far away to close slowly
Near->Far (fast) Sound moves close to far away quickly
Near->Far (slow) Sound moves close to far away slowly
Small Circle Sound moves in an 8 ft. circle in front
Medium Circle Sound moves in a 50 ft. circle in front of you
Large Circle Sound moves in a 120 ft. circle in front of you
Huge Circle Sound moves in a 250 ft. circle in front of you
Random 1 Sound moves in a random path in front of you
Random 2 Sound moves in a different random path
User Path 1-10 Sound moves in a user-programmed path
The pre-computed paths are always initially scaled to the length of the
sample, although this time may be changed using the Duration param-
eter (read on). The 10 user-defined paths are saved along with the bank
so that they may be applied to other samples over multiple-user ses-
sions.
4. Turn Doppler Pitch Shift On or Off. With Doppler turned Off,
only the panning effect will be enabled.
