Proteus operation manual
If the numbers are "00" as in the example above, it means that the
instruments are tuned to concert pitch (A=440 Hz). Each whole number
in coarse tuning represents a semitone interval. To tune one or both of the
instruments up an octave, move the cursor to the number (using the
cursor button) and set the number to +12 using the data entry control. Try
tuning one of the instruments to a perfect fifth above the other. Simply set
the coarse tuning to +7.
CHORUS
This is an easy one. With the cursor on the top line of the display, turn the
data control until you find CHORUS. Chorus can be turned on or off for
each of the primary and secondary instruments. Chorus works by dou-
bling the instruments and detuning them slightly. Try it.
CHORUS
pri:Off
REVERSING THE SOUND
A simple concept. The instrument sounds can be played in reverse. This
will normally make an instrument sound quite a bit different. It also
virtually doubles the number of raw instruments you have to work with,
and it's fun.
REVERSE SOUND
pri:Off
You're probably getting the idea by now. Remember not to change presets
or the preset will return to normal. If you want to save your creation, select
the last screen in the Edit menu and select a destination preset location for
your masterpiece, then press Enter. That's it.
The previous examples were offered solely to pique your curiosity. By all
means, go ahead and experiment with any of the other functions. Some of
the best sounds have been discovered by accident. If it sounds good ... Do
it!
