Aftertouch Source
[Off, Channel, Poly, Channel+Poly]
This lets you instantly re-configure the synth to take advantage of controllers with Poly Aftertouch.
Off: All aftertouch will be ignored.
Channel: The mod source "Aftertouch" receives Channel Aftertouch. Poly Aftertouch can still be used via the dedicated
Poly AT mod source.
Poly: The mod source "Aftertouch" receives Poly Aftertouch. Channel Aftertouch is ignored.
Channel+Poly: The mod source "Aftertouch" receives both Channel and Poly Aftertouch. If both are sent
simultaneously, the most recent value is used.
SST Hold Time
[0 ms...60 sec]
This controls the duration of Smooth Sound Transitions. It sets how long reverbs, delays, and note releases continue
to ring out after a new sound has been selected. The timer starts after all notes from the previous sound are no longer
being held down, and the sustain pedal is released.
Transpose
[Transposes Scale, Within Scale]
This parameter determines how the Performance and Program Transpose parameters interact with the Scale and Key.
Within Scale means that transposition uses intervals within the current scale. This option works well if you are using
non-equal-tempered scales and want to build parallel intervals (such as "fat fifths") into your sounds. For example, let's
say that you are using Just Intonation in the key of C. If you transpose one of the Programs up by 7 semitones and play a
C, the result will be two notes: C, and G 2 cents sharp (the Just Intonation fifth).
Transposes Scale means that the Scale's Key changes to match the transposition. This option is useful if you play in non-
equal-tempered scales and transpose entire songs—to accommodate singers, for example. In other words, let's say that
the Key is set to C, and the third note of the scale (E) is 50 cents flat. If you transpose up by 2 semitones, and play an E,
the result will be an F# 50 cents flat—still the third note of the scale.
Master Tune
[–50 (427.47Hz)...+50 (452.89Hz)]
This adjusts the overall tuning in one-cent units, over a range of ±50 cents. (A cent is 1/100 of a semitone.) At the
default of 0, A4 = 440 Hz.
The value shown for A4's frequency assumes that the scale is set to Equal Temperament. If a different scale is
selected, the actual frequency of A4 may be different.
Global MIDI Channel
[1...16]
This is the basic MIDI channel for modwave native. It applies to:
MIDI received by any Layer with Use Global MIDI Channel enabled
•
•
Program Change (via Set Lists)
•
Other global functionality, such as modulation of Mod Knobs, Master Reverb, and Kaoss Physics
Global Scale
[Off, On]
On: The settings on this page control the instrument's scales. Performance scales are ignored.
Off: The scale settings on this page are ignored.
Note: If both Global Scale and Performance Scale are Off, the system simply uses equal temperament.
Active Scale, 1 (Scale 1), (Key), 2 (Scale 2), (Key)
When Global Scale is On, these control the scale being used. For details on the scale parameters, see "Active Scale" on
page 54.
