Ecs; Chord (Memory) - LinPlug Albino 3 Manual

This is useful if you're trying to replicate the warmth of an old analog
synthesizer. Precision can be set in a range from 90% to 100%.

ECS

The ECS (Easy Controller Setup) section makes it simple to control the
Albino 3 from an external MIDI controller (either hardware or software). All
you have to do is switch on the ECS light (click it once), select a Albino 3
parameter with the mouse and then send some MIDI messages to the
Albino 3 from you MIDI source. That's all there is to it! From now on you
can change the parameter with that controller. In addition to this, more than
one controller can be defined to change a particular parameter. In fact, you
can define up to 128 parameter-controller-combinations. This does not
depend on the type of controller you have nor the particular MIDI Control
Change messages it sends. Don't forget to switch off the ECS light after
you have finished using it (click it again)!
ECS settings can be saved and restored using the "Load" and "Save"
functions from the menu that pops up, when you click at the ECS letters. In
addition, a single controller assignment can be cleared using the "Clear"
menu entry. All you have to do is select clear (the ECS light goes on) and
move controls that you wish to be cleared (deassigned from MIDI CC's).
Don't forget to switch off the clear-function by clicking the ECS control after
you have finished!
The "Clear All" function clears all controller assignments at once.

Chord (Memory)

The Chord (Memory) control enables you to record Chords as part of a
Preset. Clicking the Chord control opens a popup Menu where you can
choose Off (Chord memory is switched Off and has no effect), Learn
(Chord memory will store any 8 notes you play) and Play (any note played
will trigger the whole chord that was entered in Learn Mode).
The chord memory is great when combined with the Arpeggiator. Note that
the order in which notes are played in Learn Mode makes a difference: the
first Note is taken as the Root or basic note and all successive notes are
remembered relatively by interval. So if you "learn" the chord C-E-G by
actually playing the E first, the C is remembered as -4 semitones and the G
as +3 semitones. This means if you play a C when in play mode the Chord
memory will transfer it to C, a C -4 semitones (a G#) and a C +3 semitones
(D#), so you'll hear a G#-C-D#.
