Nektarine Multi Mode and FXs Control
Multi-Mode
Nektarine can host up to 16 plugins for layering, splits and mixing of sounds. The first plugin you load in an instance of
Nektarine is inserted in instrument channel 1. More slots can be created from Panorama T4/T6 and the browser can be used
to find different sounds for each slot.
1.
Press the [Multi] button. You may have to press it twice before it's
active. The display now shows a list of instrument channels with either
a plugin or patch name for each plugin loaded.
2.
Press the display button labelled [Add Slt]. This creates a instrument
channel. You can create up to 16 layered instrument channels and set
Key and Velocity range for each, when the Keys profile is selected*.
Keyboard Zones are described in the online Nektarine manual section
2.4 Keyboard Zone
Parameters.
3.
Press the [Browse] button and select a patch as described in the
Browse section. Press [Browse], [Multi] or [Instrument] again to exit.
*Adding instrument channels when the Pads profile is selected is best done via the Pads View in Nektarine because routing to
pads cannot be done from Panorama T4/T6.
You can add up to 16 slots by repeating the above steps. While [Multi] is active, the controls are assigned to dedicated Multi-
mode operations.
•
Faders 1-8 control volume for each of the 8 slots.
•
Encoders 1-8 control pan for each of the 8 slots.
•
Fader button 9 toggles the operation options for the LED buttons: Solo/Mute/Select.
•
Display button 4 [FX1-4] allows selection and control of effects plugins. See next section for details.
•
Press [Instrument] to control the parameters of the currently selected slot
Removing slots can be done in the Nektarine GUI. Read more about Nektarine's Plugin View on the
FXs Control
Effect plugins can be loaded directly from Panorama T4/T6 by selecting any of the 4 insert slot that the current instrument
routes to or any of the 4 global send effects.
Effect plugins are controlled via Multi-mode which enables you to switch between control of an instrument plugin and an
effect plug by alternately pressing [Instrument] and [Multi].
1.
Press [Multi] followed by [FX 1-4 (Display button 4)] to select.
2.
[Insert] is selected by default. If you prefer to select/control a send
effect, press [Sends]
3.
Move [E1/Data] to scroll through the effect slots. Three slots are visible
so press [Setup/Menu] to toggle between insers 1-3 and 2-4.
4.
Press [Select] to select the insert slot. If a plugin is already inserted,
it's now mapped for control by the 8 encoders. Control mapping works
the same way as it does for instrument plugins which means you can
customize mapping using the same tools.
5.
If an effect plugin is not inserted, the insert slot is now selected. Press [Browse] and load a plugin as described in the
Browse section.
6.
When a plugin has been loaded, press [Browse] or [Multi] to control it.
7.
To insert an effect in another slot, press [Multi] to exit the control page and repeat steps 3-6.
